This study was conducted for the first time based on the evidence that cadaver practice is not easy in the university without medical school where cadaver dissection is not easy to look for. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of osteology practice at human anatomy course for students at the freshman stage in college of health science without medical school. Both self report questionnaires and evaluation paper were analyzed depending on the course of higher education and gender. As a result of analysis, most students thought that osteology practice was interesting and it helped to understand of anatomy lecture. But students from liberal arts had poor understanding of bone's direction compared with students from natural sciences. And most students wanted to do cadaver dissectionafter osteology practice. In conclusion, osteology practice was recommended to student's expectation as well as education of gross anatomy in department of biomedical laboratory science, collage of health science without medical school. This study suggested that practice of gross anatomy should run parallel with lecture.

Anatomical terms is very important for the whole medical area. In the past, medical student have confused with the anatomical terms which were base on Japanish-Chinese. So they have to be made easily for reading and learning. Fortunately the anatomical terms in Korean had completely made through the fourth edition. According to the oriental law and customs human dissection was prohibited, therefore human anatomy naturally undeveloped. In this study, on the view of the Korean terms carried out the comparison between oriental and western anatomical terms in osteology and splanchnology. The oriental anatomical terms expressed with only looking at and touching the part of the human body. The gross structure of the osteology, is similar to oriental and western medicine but there's no detailed nomenclature of the bone. Instead of it, they expressed connection to acupuncture point or disease in the human body. So it's difficult to find out the anatomical terms of the splanchnology like recent ones.

The skeletal system of freshwater goby Micropercops swinhonis from Korea is figured and described in detail. The osteological characteristics of the species are as follows: infraorbital bearing a subocular shelf present; mesopterygoid present and separated from metapterygoid; scapula forked and dorsal postcleithrum present; and caudal skeleton and first dorsal pterygiophore formula highly variable.

The osteology of the atlas of phyllostomatid bats is considered. The presence of two prominent ventral spines, a midventral tubercle and accessory processes on the transverse processes are noted. Functional consideration of the atlas is presented by a study of the myology of the upper cervical region of Artibeus lituratus. Consideration is given to possible phylogenetic implications.

Morphology and osteology of the slender ribbonfish, Trachipterus ishikawae was described and figured in detail. The morphological characteristics are as follow: body elongate and compressed; upper jaw protrusile; tubercles along ventral edge of body and tail; eyes are large; body naked; caudal fin long and at a right angle to the body; from (3~4)+(7~8) gill rakers; from 180 to 185 dorsal fin rays, from 12 to 13 pectoral fin rays; 9 caudal fin rays and 5+2 short spine at caudal spine. The osteological characteristics are as follow: premaxillary is long and has four teeth; dentary is triangle shape; interopercle and subopercle are wide and flat; 5 branchiostegal rays; post clavicle is thin and long; from 79 to 80 centrum; posterior vertebrae elongate; 5~6 tubercles at urostyle bone.

A skeletal system of Coreoleuciscus splendidus from Seomjin and Mankyeong Rivers is described and figured in detail. The osteological characteristics are as follow: preorbital area elongated; eight proximal radials on the anal fin; 1st basibranchial bone with a bottle gourd shape; two types of pharynegeal teeth; intercalarium's ascending process absent and rib 4 broad greatly. Meanwhile, the number of actinost and the length of external process and internal process on the pelvic girdle are variable with individuals. These characteristics are shown in the two population. The epural on the caudal skeleton, however, has two types only in C. splendidus of Mankyeong River.

The human body consists of the twelve main meridians and the eight extra meridians including Dogmaek-Gyeong and Immaek-Gyeong. This study is on twenty-eight acupuncture points Dogmaek-Gyeong and twenty-four acupuncture points Immaek-Gyeong among the eight extra meridians. It is very important to know the accurate acupuncture points, which is the fundamental subject in the Oriental Medicine. From now on they have expressed in Chinese letters and old anatomical terms, acupuncture points are difficult and confused to learn. In order to understand acupuncture points easily, they are translated into Korean anatomical terms focused on osteology in this study. Dogmaek-Gyeong is the meridian of this vessel run along the posterior meridian line of the body. The boundary commences at the coccyx, mounts the length of the vertebral column, contours the skull of the vertex along the philtrum to terminate upon the upper gum. It has twenty-eight acupuncture points. Immaek-Gyeong is the meridian of this vessel run along the anterior meridian line of the body. The boundary commences at the perineum mounts the pubic symphysis along the umbilicus, mandible and the terminates at concave of the lower lip. It has twenty-four acupuncture points.

The study assessed the utility of mitochondrial DNA for identifying a deceased rorqual discovered off the western coast of India. Both the COI and Cytb genes exhibited remarkable 99-100% similarity with the GenBank sequence of Balaenoptera musculus through a global BLAST search, confirming their affiliation with this species. Inter-species genetic distances for COI and Cytb genes ranged from 6.75% to 9.80% and 7.37% to 10.96% respectively, compared with other Balaenopteridae species. The Bayesian phylogenies constructed based on both COI and Cytb genes demonstrated clear and separate clustering for all Balaenopteridae species, further reaffirming their distinctiveness, while concurrently revealing a cohesive clustering pattern of the generated sequences within the B. musculus clade. Beyond species confirmation, this study provides valuable insights into the presence of live and deceased B. musculus individuals within Indian marine ecosystems. This information holds significant potential for guiding conservation efforts aimed at safeguarding Important Marine Mammal Areas (IMMAs) in India over the long term.

Comprative osteology of the chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta, masu salmon O. masou and rainbow trout O. mykiss in Korea was studied. As a result, it was found that there were some differences in the structural features of the cranium and visceral skeleton among the species. Interspecific differencies in glossohyal, supraethmoid, parasphenoid and vomer were distinctive for the species. Chum salmon could be distinguished easily by some characters on form of glossohyal which is thin, long and sharp in shape. It has triangle shape supraethmoid while other two species have oval shape one. The shape of parasphenoid, preopercle, hyomandibular and the number of epurals were evaluated as new taxonomic criteria for the salmons.
