  • A study on the structures of the pharyngeal bones and teeth in two Korean ricefishes, Oryzias latipes and O. sinensis, was carried out to find out interspecfic differences. In the pharyngeal bones, both two species have a pair of upper pharyngeal bone (stilliform shape) and lower pharyngeal bone (rectangular shape). In the lower pharyngeal bones, in particular, the number of the row was 6 to 7 in O. latipes and 5 to 6 in O. sinensis. The pharyngeal teeth also showed different types in two species: O. latipes of a top-hooked type and O. sinensis of a conical type. Through this study, we confirmed that the two Korean ricefishes show distinctive characteristics in the structure of the pharyngeal teeth.

  • The digestive apparatus and food of the Korean bitterling, Acheilognathus signifer, from the upper reaches of the Hongcheon River were investigated by examining their gill rakers, pharyngeal teeth, and digestive-tube contents. Gill rakers of the first arch were relatively few (17 to 21, mean = 19) and short (mean = 0.36 mm, SD = 0.035). The 2nd to 5th pharyngeal teeth were well developed, while the first tooth was poorly developed. Gill rakers and pharyngeal teeth were completely formed early in life. The digestive tube was long and arranged in many coils. The digestive-tube contents of Korean bitterling mainly consisted of phytoplankton and detrital microorganisms.

  • This study was performed to investigate the morophological and positional correlation between the upper cervical vertebra, the oral structures and the pharyngeal tissues, and the correlation of these anatomical structures with dental features, such as teeth wear area nad tooth contact status, etc. Seventy patients with temporamandibular disorders and sixty three dental students without any signs and symptoms in head and neck region were selected for this study. All they had natural dentition without any fixed and removable protheses. Teeth wear area and arch width wre measured from the upper dental cast, tooth contact status were observed by T-Scan system$^\textregistered$ and four cephaloradiograpohs were taken from four head postures, namely, natural(NHP), forward(FHP), upward(UHP), and downward head postiure(DHP). 22 cephalometric items were measured on the films and the data were processed with SAS statistical program. The result of this study were as follows : 1. In normal group, angle of cervical vertebra tangent and of between hard and soft palate were broader in female subjects than those in male subjacets, but distance from subocciput to axis, size of soft palate, and pharyngeal space width were larger in male subjects. 2. In normal group with natural head posture, the items correlated each others from the three anatomical regions were distance between first nad second vertebra in posterior part, distance from the lingual surface of lower anterior teeth to anterior surface of soft palate, and distance from the hyoid bone to third vertebra. 3. Three set of items showed significant correlation each other in the four head postures in normal group. First set was the angle between hard and soft palate and the idstance from subocciput to posterior arch of first vertebra, second set was the distance between first and second vertebra in posterior part and the teeth wear area, third set was number and force of tooth contact and length of soft palate and distance from anterior tip of hyoid bone to mandibular plane.

  • The pharyngeal teeth and the masticatory process of the basioccipital bone were compared in ten species of Korean bitterlings. Three species, Acheilognathus lanceolata, A. limbatus, A. signifier and Rhodeus ocellatus, which are characterized by the absence of serrations on the side of the pharyngeal teeth, are found to, have reduced occlusal grooves on the outside of occlusal margin, Among Korean bitterlings, differences are found in the developmental degrees of the anterior part of the masticatory process, the grooves on the occlusal surface and the chewing area on the pharyngeal first tooth. The occlusal grooves in herbivorous species are considered to be more developed than those in omnivorous species. Considering these findings, the combination of developmental degrees in the three pharyngeal elements suggests generally the phylogenetic relationships among the Korean bitterlings.

  • Structures of jaw bones, gill rakers and pharyngeal bones of the three Pomadasys species collected from Arafura sea of Indonesia in May 1996 were described and illustrated to compare between species. The percentage of ascending process of premaxillary to head length was 21.6~23.3% in Pomadasys kaakan, 25.4~27.8% in P. maculatus and 15.3~21.0% in P. argyreus. The percentage of ascending process of premaxillary to premaxillary was 54.7~72.8% in P. argyreus, 107.8~114.9% in P. kaakan and 126.7~136.7% in P. maclllatlls. The ascending process of premaxillary of P. argyreus showed a tendency to increase as fish grow. Each jaw in all three grunters had a row of conical teeth exteriorly, but 1 to 5 rows of niddle like teeth interiorly. Among the three species examined, P. maculatus showed the most developed teeth. Pharyngeal bone, appeared to be stronger than jaw teeth, contained dense needle like teeth in P. argyreus, where as that in P. kaakan and P. maculatus had long and slender teeth exteriorly but thicker interiorly. Gill rakers of P. kaakan and P. maculatus are short, but those of P. argyreus are long.

  • English vowels play an important role in the daily communication between Korean students and international visitors. However, many Korean students still have difficulty producing them distinctively. Vowels vary according to shapes of oral and pharyngeal cavities, which are mainly determined by the degree of jaw opening and tongue position. Yang (2008a) proposed a simplified chart of English and Korean vowels for an educational purpose. He also suggested to use wooden chopsticks to secure distinguishable jaw openings. The purpose of this study is to tap whether wooden chopsticks can be applicable to a method for correcting English vowel pronunciation. Twelve male and female students participated in the recordings of eight /hVd/ words followed by additional recordings with wooden chopsticks between upper and lower teeth. The first and second formant trajectories of both natural and controlled vowel productions were obtained and compared at six equidistant measurement points using Praat. Results showed that the formant values of natural vowel productions were comparable to those of controlled productions. Vowels with similar formant trajectories of male students were separated with the aid of chopsticks. The width of each chopstick could be controlled similarly in the experiment. The author concludes that wooden chopsticks can be useful to correct vowel pronunciation. Further studies are desirable for native speakers to make perceptual evaluations of controlled vowel productions by nonnative speakers.

  • During the period from April 1991 to July 1992 clinical, hematological, and pathohistological findings of Holstein-friesian calves 47 with bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency(BLAD, immunologically ascertained), which were referzed to the clinic for diseases of cattle, veterinary school, Hannover, were described. Most cases show poor body condition, rough and dry in haircoat, salivation, gingivitis, reduction of gingiva and alveolar bone, exposing the incisors' necks, loss of teeth, phlegmonous subcutaneous swellings, ulcerated tongue, recurang fever, coughing, dyspnea, pharyngeal and laryngeal stertor, periodical diarrhea, impaired swallowing, placid and less painsensitive. Relevant laboratory findings are persistent leucocytosis(with more than 30,000 up to 150,000 cells per $mm^3$ of blood), marked neutrophilia(without "shift to the left"), hyperproteinemia, and hypergammaglobulinemia. At post-mortem the carcass of BLAD-affected calves is usually emaciated. All lymphnodes of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract appear markedly activated(swollen). Lesions in the mouth(gingivitis, defective dentition, pulpitis/alveolar paraodontitis, ulcerated tongue), throat and larynx(inflammation/ulceration), and lungs(pneumonic foci) correspond to the clinical symptoms seen on the living animal. There may be ulcers on the prestomachal mucosa, hyperemia of the intestinal mucosa with hyperplasia of Peyer's patches, ulceration and/or intramural abscesses. The spleen shows follicular hyperplasia. Microscopically, both myeloand erythropoesis are markedly activated in the bone marrow ; capillaries in many organs show leucocytostasis.

  • Matured adults of chum salmon were collected from Namdae-chun River, Yangyand-gun, Kangwon-do, Korea in december of 1989 and 1990. Artificial insemination was made in the field. Hatching and neasing were cassied out in laboratories of the Yangyand Fisheries Institute and Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute : Ossification of bones of alevin, fry and smolt were investigated : 1. The newly hatched alevins, 1.80 to 2.56mm in total length, were ossified partly on parasphenoid, maxillary, dentary and opercle bones. 2. The alevin stage, the visceral bones connected with feeding and respiratory function were ossified earlier than cranium and vertebra. At swim up stage, the fry attained 3 to 4cm in total length, most of bones except cranium were ossified. 3. Teeth on the jaw bones, palatine, vomer, upper and lower pharyngeal bones were increased conspicuously when the body length were ranged from 3 to 4cm. 4. Caudal fin of hatched larvae had already seventeen occified rays and developed earlier than any other fins.
