The Miltogramminae (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) includes 600 species divided into more than 40 genera. The biological feature of the miltogrammine species is being kleptoparasites in the nests of solitary wasps and bees, but insect parasitoids and termite inquilines have been also recorded. In Korea, only three species in two genera have been recorded. In this study, five unrecorded species (Amobia oculata, Metopia inermis, Metopia nudibasis, Miltogramma angustifrons and Phylloteles formosana) are reported for the first time in Korea. The diagnosis, photographs and checklists are provided herein.
Islands often have relatively well-preserved ecosystem and an abundance of bioresources with a high conservation value, with unrecorded species continuing to be reported (Hong, 2011). Approximately 1,000,000 species of insect known worldwide (Costello et al., 2012), and 20,710 species are known in Korea (NIBR, 2023). Among these, there are 6,117 species in Korean islands (HNIBR, 2022). Native insect Bio-scan project for Korean islands is to estimate the number of insect species on Korean islands. We attempted to estimate the number of insect species on Korean islands using Barcode Index Number (BIN), and also found unrecorded species. The samples were collected four times from April to July at five locations in the Amtedo, an island located in Shinan-gun Jeollanam-do. We tried to obtain a minimum of one to usually a maximum of four samples per morphospecies to enable DNA barcoding.
The genus Kurahashiodes is a monotypic genus that only recorded in Japan with Kurahashiodes suenagai. This species was first known by Wohlfahrtiodes suenagai in 1994, but reorganized with the new genus Kurahashiodes by Verves in 2001. Kurahashiodes was close to genus Wohlfahrtia but can be distinguished by R1 haired, surstylus narrow, phallus without ventral protuberance. This genus is reported for the first time in Korean fauna. The diagnosis and photographs of the Kurahashiodes suenagai are provided herein.
본 연구는 동물병원을 방문하거나 펫 앱을 사용하는 반려동물 소유주를 대상으로 수행되었고, 이들의 사육상황, 식용곤충을 사용하는 사료와 기능성 펫 사료에 대한 인지도와 구매의사를 조사 분석하였다. 조사결과, 조사대상의 89.5%가 개나 고양이와 같은 반려동물을 키우고 있었고, 55.6%가 식용곤충을 이용한 반려동물사료에 대해 알고 있었다. 식용곤충을 사용한 반려동물사료에 대해 구매의사를 물었을 때 48.5%가 구매의사를 보였고, 51.5%가 불구매 의사를 보였다. 구매의 주요 이유로는 낮은 알러지 가능성과 높은 영양성을 언급하였고, 불구매 의사의 주요 이유로는 식용곤충에 대한 거부감으로 조사되었다.
In this paper, control software architecture is designed to enable a heterogeneous multiple humanoid robot demonstration executing tasks cooperating with each other. In the heterogeneous humanoid robot team, one large humanoid robot and two small humanoid robots are included. For the efficient and reliable information sharing between many software components for humanoid control, sensing and planning, CORBA based software framework is applied. The humanoid tasks are given in terms of finite state diagram based human-robot interface, which is interpreted into the XML based languages defining the details of the humanoid mission. A state transition is triggered based on the event which is described in terms of conditions on the sensor measurements such as robot locations and the external vision system. In the demonstration of the heterogeneous humanoid team, the task of multiple humanoid cleaning the table is given to the humanoid robots and successfully executed based on the given state diagram.
