This parer presents a method of ranking translation word selection for Korean verbs based on lexical knowledge contained in a bilingual Korean-English dictionary and WordNet that are easily obtainable knowledge resources. We focus on deciding which translation of the target word is the most appropriate using the measure of semantic relatedness through the 45 extended relations between possible translations of target word and some indicative clue words that play a role of predicate-arguments in source language text. In order to reduce the weight of application of possibly unwanted senses, we rank the possible word senses for each translation word by measuring semantic similarity between the translation word and its near synonyms. We report an average accuracy of $51\%$ with ten Korean ambiguous verbs. The evaluation suggests that our approach outperforms the default baseline performance and previous works.

The genus Pterosiphonia includes twenty-one currently described species of red algae that occur in temperate to tropical regions of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Pterosiphonia spinifera was originally described as Polysiphonia spinifera from Peru and later transferred to Pterosiphonia. Pterosiphonia spinifera has been reported from Peru as Pterosiphonia pennata, which was originally described from the Mediterranean Sea. Recently, Pterosiphonia arenosa was described based on specimens of P. pennata from Korea. We collected P. spinifera along the coast of Peru and P. arenosa near the type locality in Korea. We compared them with the isotype specimens of P. arenosa using both morphological and molecular data. Our morphological observations and our phylogenetic analysis of rbcL sequences demonstrate that P. spinifera and P. arenosa are conspecific and indicate that P. arenosa is a later synonym of P. spinifera. Our study confirms the wide occurrence of P. spinifera in the western and eastern Pacific Ocean.

Korean species of the genus Myelochroa are revised taxonomically and the following eight species are recognized: M. aurulenta (Tuck.) Elix & Hale, M. entotheiochroa (Hue) Elix & Hale, M. galbina (Ach.) Elix & Hale, M. hayachinensis (Kurok.) Elix & Hale, M. irrugans (Nyl.) Elix & Hale, M. leucotyliza (Nyl.) Elix & Hale, M. metarevoluta (Asahina) Elix & Hale and M. perisidians (Nyl.) Elix & Hale. Myelochroa ibukiensis K.H. Moon et al. is reduced to a synonym for M. aurulenta. Myelochroa denegans (Nyl.) Elix & Hale, M. indica (Hale) Elix & Hale and M. xantholepis (Mont. & Bosch) Elix & Hale are excluded from the lichen of Korea. In addition, a key for the species of the Korean Myelochroa is provided.

Chemotaxonomic and numerical identification were carried out for a isolate of Streptomyces strain SMF301 producing spores in submerged culture. Fifty taxonomic unit characters were tested and the data were analyzed numerically using the TAXON program. The isolate SMF301 was identified to cluster 1A of Streptomyces and best matched to Streptomyces limosus which is a synonym of Streptomyces albidoflavus. Therefore, it was concluded that the isolate was identified to be a member of Streptomyces alidoflavus.

Chemotaxonomic and numerical identification were carried out for an isolate of Streptomyces strain SMF13 producing thiol protease inhibitor. Fifty taxonomic unit characters were tested and the data were analyzed numerically using the TAXON program. The isolate SMF13 was identified to be a member of the cluster 5 of Streptomyces and best matched to Streptomyces omiyaensis which is a synonym of Streptomyces exfoliatus. Therefore. it was concluded that the isolate was identified to be a strain of Streptomyces exfoliatus.

Sometimes scalability is described loosely as a synonym for capacity. A system has their own characteristics that differ from others. For each system, they may have different aspect to identify their scalability. Our focus here is in the sensor middleware. This paper described the analysis of scalability for sensor middleware. Summarizing approaches to keep the scalability in check and propose a measurement candidate to decide whether it's scalable or not.

Previously only one species, Embolemus ruddii Westwood, 1833, of the family Embolemidae has been recorded in South Korea. As part of a recent study of this family, we newly report four species from South Korea: Embolemus hachijoensis Hirashima et Yamagishi, 1975; E. krombeini Olmi, 1996; E. sensitivus Xu, Olmi et Guglielmino, 2012; Ampulicomorpha thauma Rasnitsyn et Matveev, 1989. The genus, Ampulicomorpha Ashmead, 1893, is recorded for the first time in South Korea. Embolemus ruddii was previously recorded from South Korea because considered synonym of E. walkeri. However, in recent years the two species were separated and E. ruddii was considered absent in the far east, where on the contrary E. walkeri is present. Therefore, five species in two genera are now recognized as the South Korean embolemid fauna. A key to the South Korean Embolemidae species is provided.

Shells and operculums of eight species of Bithyniidae, Bithynia leachi, B. tentaculata, B. siamensis, B. misella, B. kiusiuensis, Gabbia australis, B. manchourica and a Bithynia sp. collected from Nepal, were observed, There is no morphological difference between korean populations of B. misella and a Japanese popualtion of B. kiusiuensis. And the shells of these species were simialr to the other Bithynia species rather than Australian Gabbia. The coordinate of the starting point of nuclear spire of operculum(SPN)was species specific and this value had very limited range within a species. The result suggested that Korean and Japanese populations of B. misella and B. kiusiuensis are synonym and the coordinate of SPN will be a useful character in sytematics of operculated snails.

The ambrosia beetle, Platypus koryoensis, is an economically important pest affecting oak trees in Korea. Candida kashinagacola was isolated from galleries of the beetle in oak wood and identified by analyses of morphology, physiological properties, and nucleotide sequence of the large subunit ribosomal DNA. This is the first report on Candida species associated with oak wilt disease vectored by the ambrosia beetle, Platypus koryoensis, in Korea.

깔때기거미屬(Coras)은 1898年에 E. Simon이 創設한 이래, 北美洲에서 約 15種, 極東地域에서 다음 3種이 記載되었다. 卽 C. insidiosus(L. Koch, 1877) 日本 C. luctuosus(L. Koch, 1877) 日本 $\\cdot$ 中國(\ulcorner) C.plancyi(Simon, 1880) 日本 $\\cdot$ 中國 本屬은 Coelotes 屬과 매우 닮아서, 그 사이에 뚜렷한 區分을 지우기란 困難하며, 따라서 種의 所屬에도 적지않은 混亂을 招來하고 있다. 本屬은 종래에는 Ageleidae의 Ageleninae에 所屬시켜 왔으나 最近에 Lehtinen(1967)은 이것을 F.O. Pickard-Cambridge(1893)가 設定한 Coelotinae로 옮겼는데 이것은 매우 타당한 處事라 하겠다. 韓國産 Coras 屬에 對해서는 白(1942, 1962, 1967), 白 $\\cdot$ 金(1956) 및 南宮(1964) 等이 日本과 共通種인 Coras insidiosus를 報告한바 있다. 그러나 이번 調査에서 이것은 Coelotes songminjae Paik et Yaginuma, 1969의 synonym으로 밝혀졌으므로 우리 나라의 spider fauna에서 除外하기로 했다. 한편 筆者 所藏의 標本을 整理한 結果 새로히 1韓國未記錄種 과 1新種을 얻었기에 이에 記載하는 바이다. 韓國未記錄種 Coras luctuosus (L.
