A geometrid genus Pareulype Herbulot sensu Inoue (1977) is reviewed in Korea. Up to now, two species, P. taczanowskiaria (Oberthur) and P. onoi Inoue, were known from Korea and these two species were newly combined into another genus Pelurga Hubner. One Pareulype species, P. consanguinea (Butler), is first recognized from Korea throughout the present study. Diagnoses of each genus and species are provided with illustrations of adults and genitalia. Phylogenetic relationship of Pareulype and Pelurga Hubner is briefly discussed.

The wild silkworm, Bombyx mandarina, was believed the only ancestor of B. mori, inhabits the limited area of Eastern Asia including China, Korea and Japan. However, the geographic dimorphism of B. mandarina was reported with chromosome number and arylphorin gene. In connection with those dimorphism, we studied the genetic differences of ITS-2 region in rDNA purposing the differentiation and geographic variation within the species of B. mandarina. (omitted)

Phylogenetic analyses were conducted to evaluate relationships of 7 taxa of Korean Carpesium including three outgroup (Inula britannica L., Inula germanica L., Rhanteriopsis lannginosa (DC.) Rauschert) by using ITS (internal transcribed spacer) sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA. Phylogenetic studies used maximum parsimony, neighbor-joining and maximum likelihood methods analysis. The length of the ITS sequences was 731 bp, and the lengths of the ITS1, ITS2 and 5.8S regions were 284~297 bp, 264~266 bp and 164 bp, respectively. The total number of variable sites was 111 for the entire sequences, and a parsimony informative sites of 64 are valid. Base change appeared variously in ITS1 rather than in ITS2. As the result, Korean Carpesium were formed monophyletic group and C. abrotanoides situated as the most basal clade. The results show that C. macrocephalum is closely related with C. triste. C. rosulatum has the closest relationship with C. glossophyllum. C. cernuum is close to C. divaricatum. These results suggest that the ITS data used in this study could be useful for the phylogenetic analysis of Korean Carpesium.

Seaweeds represent a widely harnessed marine resource that are valued for their abundant supply of essential nutrients, particularly proteins and amino acids. In Korea, where over 500 species of seaweed thrive and more than 50 are utilized for culinary purposes, seaweed has become a staple in regular diets. In this study, we focused on five of the most commonly consumed seaweed species in Korea: Capsosiphon fulvescens, Hizikia fusiforme, Porphyra yezoensis, Saccharina japonica, and Undaria pinnatifida. We closely examined the amino acid compositions of these five species. High-performance liquid chromatography showed that aspartic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, and leucine were the most abundant amino acids in the seaweeds. Principal component analysis revealed that the five seaweed species could be classified into three clusters according to their amino acid composition, partially corroborating findings from the phylogenetic analysis. Among various amino acids, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and alanine were the primary amino acids driving differentiation. Notably, U. pinnatifida and C. fulvescens, which demonstrated close phylogenetic proximity, exhibited remarkably similar amino acid profiles. Conversely, although P. yezoensis and S. japonica shared a phylogenetic relationship, they displayed distinctly different amino acid compositions. H. fusiforme emerged as a distinct group in both analyses.

The marine dinoflagellate genus Alexandrium has been recognized as the most representative toxic phytoplankton on account of production of paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) throughout the world. PSP producers, generally A, tamarense and A. catenella, within the genus Alexandrium have caused high level intoxicauon of fisheries products and even death of human. In addition, more recent increasing of geographical range of this deleterious species has given rise to alarming tension. The study presented here aimed construction of the molecular phylogenetic relationships through sequences-determination from 16 morphotypic species (containing newly sequenced 3 morphotypic species, A. tamiyavainchii, A. fraterculus and A. pseudogonyaulax) in LSU rDNA D1-D2 and 12 morphotypic species (containing newly sequenced 6 - morphotypic species, A. catenella, A. tamiyavanichii, A. fraterculus, A. affine, A. insuetum and A. pseudogonyaulax) in SSU rDNA region, and the sequences were subjected to comparative-analysis in respect to regional population using functionally expressed rDNA genus and pseudogenes. And we discussed on genetic differentiation between A. tamarense and A. catenella together with putative PSP divegence of the genus Alexandrium. The results of phylogenetic analysis showed the robust monophyletic 14 distinct classes of A. tamarense, A. excavatum, A. catenella, Tasmanian A. tamarense, A. affine (and/or A. concavum), Thai A. tamarense, A. tamiyavanichii, A. fraterculus, A. margalefii, A. andersonii, A. ostenfeldii, A. minutum (and/or A. lusitanicum), A. insuetum, and A, pseudogonyaulx clade. A. fraterculus and A. tamiyavanichii were sister relationship and they were positioned independently between A, affine cluster and those of A. margalefi, A. andersonii, A. ostenfeldii, A. minutum and A. insuetum. A. pseudogonyaulax appeared to be an ancestral taxon among Alexandrium.
