Asteroid specimens were collected using fishing nets from the East Sea, Korea. The specimens were identified as Solaster paxillatus Sladen, 1889, belonging to the family Solasteridae of the order Valvatida. This species can be distinguished from three other Korean Solaster species by having 10 arms; subambulacral spines comprising four or five near base of arm, six or seven in middle part, and five or six in distal part of arm; furrow spines comprising four or five near basal part and three or four in distal part of arm; and suboral spines comprising more than ten spinules. The morphological characteristics of this species were described with illustrations. Solaster paxillatus is first reported in marine fauna of Korea.

A new species of free-living marine nematode is described from intertidal sediments of the East Sea, Korea. Phanoderma koreense sp. nov. is characterized by the presence of well-developed pharyngeal and cephalic capsule, six inner labial sensilla present as minute papillae around with circular groove, long and slender spicules with 4-5 serrated distal end, located at the base of the precloacal supplement, a series of eight to nine stout and short setae on the ventral cloacal region and conico-cylindrical tail with two pairs of blunt setae. In this study, we provide taxonomic descriptions and illustrations of a new species by differential interference contrast microscope and a pictorial key to the valid species of Phanoderma Bastian, 1865. This is the first record of the genus Phanoderma in the East Sea, Korea.

Pseudisobrachium is one of the biggest genera with 190 species from the world including one extinct species from France. In Korea, only one species, P. koreana Lim, has been recorded. The ecological information of Pseudisobrachium is poorly studied, however, it was recorded that Pseudisobrachium species are found associated with various ants in several previous studies. As results of taxonomy studies on the Korean bethylids, a new species of Pseudisobrachium is discovered based on one female specimen which was collected from Cheongsong county (Gyeongbuk province) by Malaise trap in 2008. This is the first record of female of the genus in Korea. A taxonomic discussion on the genus Pseudisobrachium, diagnosis and diagnostic characteristics of the new species are provided.

The genus Nipponobythus was first described by Jeannel in 1958 from Japan based on Nipponobythus syrbatoides Jeannel 1958. Löbl described the genus Machulkaia (type species: Machulkaia mirabilis Löbl 1964), but it was synonymized under Nipponobythus later. Nipponobythus holds 14 species from Korea, Japan and China. Three species (N. chilisanus, N. dolharubang and N. omissus) are currently recorded in Korea. Members of this genus can be distinguished from other pselaphine genera in having concave frons with golden pubescence in males. Here we describe a new species of Nipponobythus from Mt. Gahak, Jeollanam-do, South Korea. This new species is externally similar to N. chilisanus Nomura & Lee 1996, but has differences in male genitalia.

The supertribe Faronitae consists of 29 genera worldwide, and 13 genera in Australia and New Zealand. During examine 36 specimens from the private collection of Donald S. Chandler (Durham, New Hampshire, USA) and the Field Museum of Natural History (Chicago, Illinois, USA), we recognized three species. They does not share diagnostic characters with any known faronite genus. Here we describe new genus and three new species from Western Australia. Members of this new genus can be distinguished by the following combination characters: rostrum with distinct shallow and narrow frontal sulcus, apically sharp and narrow median lobe of male genitalia, and twice longer abdominal segment VI than V.

본 연구를 통해 Dactylioglypha tonica (Meyrick, 1909) 종을 기반으로 Dactylioglypha속을 국내 최초로 보고한다. Dactylioglypha속은 잎말이나방과의 애기잎말이나방아과에 속해 있는 그룹으로 현재까지 전 세계적으로 5종이 동구북 구, 동양구 및 호주구 등지에서 보고되어 있다. 이번 연구를 통하여 우리나라에서는 제주에서 서식하는 것이 확인되었 다. 본 연구에서는 Dactylioglypha속에 대해 개괄적으로 소개하고 D. tonica (Meyrick, 1909)의 외부형태적 특징, 기주식물 및 분포적 특성 등을 정리하여 제시하였다.

An asteroid specimen that belongs to the genus Henricia was collected from the waters near Ongpo harbor, Jeju Island using fishing net on 24 January 2017. The specimen was identified as Henricia anomala Hayashi, 1973, which belongs to the family Echinasteridae and order Spinulosida. Henricia anomala was first described by Hayashi, 1973, who captured it from Sagami Bay at a depth of 110-116 m. This species can be distinguished from other Henricia species by short arms (R/r=4), abactinal spines lining the abactinal plates and bearing about two to five spinelets, closely meshed abactinal skeleton, composed of small rod-like and subtriangular plates, a narrow papular area containing one or two papulae, and adambulacral armature composed of five to seven bluntly pointed spinelets. This is the first report of Henricia anomala in Korea.

The genus Coptotriche belongs to leafmining family Tischeriidae, comprising about 60 species in the world. They live in inside leaves during immature stage; larvae feed on tissue of the leaf, producing mining trace. The pupa also spend in the mine, and emerge to become a adult from the mine. In Korea, two species, C. angusticollella and C. heinemanni, are reported and are known as pest about Rosa multiflora and Rubus crataegifolius respectively. In the present study, we review three species of genus Coptotriche in Korea with a new species. Brief descriptions and illustrations of the adults, male and female genitalia, larvae, pupae, and host plants are provided.

The genus Docirava Walker, [1863] belongs to the tribe Chesiadini of the family Geometridae with only 12 described species in the world. The genus could be distinguished from other genera of Chesiadini with the characters, which had been described by walker in original description as follow : “Proboscis slender, rather long….Legs long, very slender; hind tibiae with four rather short and slender spurs”. In this study, the genus Docirava was first recorded with a new species Docirava sp. nov. with DNA barcode. Also, all the available information including images for both of genitalia and adult, wing venation and descriptional study was provided.

While working on beetles collected by using flight interception trap, we found specimens possessing similar characters with salpingidine genus Lissodema Curtis. After detailed examination of the specimens and comparison with other Lissodema species, we concluded that these specimens represent a new species of the genus. The genus Lissodema was first proposed by Curtis based on Lissodema heyana Curtis and contains 19 species in the Palaearctic region. In eastern Asia, 14 and three species are recorded in Japan and Russian Far East, respectively, but no species have been reported from Korea. In this study, a description, habitus photographs and line drawings of diagnostic characters of a new species from Korea are provided.
