「개식용종식법」 제정으로 인해 「축산법」상 개의 법적 지위 재정립이 사회적 쟁점으로 부상하였다. 본 연구는 「축산법」에서 개를 가축에서 제외할 경우 파생될 유관 법령(총 24개)과의 연관성 및 쟁점을 심층 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 「축산법」을 준용하는 법령들은 개정 내용이 자동 반영되지만, 「가축분뇨법」, 「가축전염병예방법」, 「농업식품기본법」 등 개를 별도로 정의하거나 준용 여부가 모호한 법령들은 추가적인 법적 공백이나 충돌을 야기할 수 있음이 확인되었다. 특히 반려견 개 사육업자의 농업인 지위 상실, 가축분뇨 및 가축전염병 관리의 공백, 농지 이용 제한 등의 문제가 제기된다. 따라서 「축산법」 개정은 「축산물위생관리법」, 「동물보호법」, 「개식용종식법」과의 모호성 해소뿐만 아니라, 다양한 유관 법령과의 관계 재정립 이 필요하다. 이는 이해당사자 간의 면밀한 검토와 사회적 합의를 통해 균형 잡힌 법 제도를 마련하는 기초 자료가 될 것이다.

The historical local chronicles of Chongqing during the Ming and Qing dynasties as well as the Republic of China period valued both history and geography while also emphasizing humanities. The generic toponym characters best indicate the geographical type to which individual toponym belongs, and accommodates the changes in natural and social characteristics of the southwest region in China. The Grand Dictionary of Chinese Characters is an authoritative large-scale Chinese language dictionary, serving as a bridge between national language norms and the reality of people’s spoken language. It focuses on reflecting the origin, evolution, and actual usage of toponymic characters, but has quite limited absorption and utilization of toponymic materials from local chronicles. In order to investigate the lexicological value of local chronicles, this article uses the historical local chronicles of Chongqing to supplement the pronunciation, explaination, use cases, and inter-character relationships of the generic toponym characters compiled in The Grand Dictionary of Chinese Characters.

The 2020 revision of Japan's Wholesale Market Act aimed to improve the financial performance of wholesale companies. Before the revision, the wholesale market saw a continuous decline in transaction volume and value, and the operating profit margin of wholesale companies was 0.18% in 2018, with 38.2% of wholesale companies experiencing operating losses. After the revision of the Wholesale Market Act, the operating profit margin of wholesale companies significantly improved to 0.41% by 2022. The reasons for this improvement are as follows: The transaction amount and the rate of change between 2022 and 2018 showed little difference. The number of markets increased by one central wholesale market, and while the number of buying and selling participants decreased, individual purchase volumes increased. The proportion of auctions further declined, and the number of direct transactions rose. As consignment collection decreased, purchased collection increased, leading to an improvement in financial performance. Ultimately, despite the short time frame, the revision of Japan's Wholesale Market Act led to positive changes that improved the financial performance of wholesale companies.

본 연구는 공동주택 내 수목의 탄소중립 효과를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 우리는 의사결정도구를 활용하 여 식재공사 건설기준 개정에 따른 탄소 배출량의 변화를 분석하였다. 동시에 준공 후 수목들의 탄소 저장, 연간 탄소 흡수량, 20년 후 탄소 흡수량을 산정하였다. 분석 결과, 식재공사 건설기준은 탄소 배출 을 높이는 방향으로 개정되고 있었다. 준공 20년 후 수목들의 탄소 흡수량은 식재공사 단계에서 배출된 탄소의 2배의 양을 상쇄하였다. 구체적으로 중·소규격의 수목들이 탄소 배출 저감과 흡수 증가에 효과 적이었다. 한편 소나무는 20년 후에도 탄소를 상쇄하지 못하였다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 다음과 같은 시사점을 남겼다. 첫째, 식재공사 기준은 기계 시공량을 축소하는 방향으로 개정되어야 할 것이다. 둘 째, 식재공사에 고연비 굴삭기를 사용할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 중소규격의 수목을 중심으로 한 식재 전략 이 요구된다. 넷째, 탄소 성능 높은 수종으로 소나무를 대체해야 할 것이다.

Until now, only two species of Dichaetomyia Malloch have been recorded in the Korean fauna. In this study, we report two unrecorded species for the first time in Korea. External photographs, key to Korean species and taxonomic information are presented herein.

Subgenus Bothynoptera Schaum, 1863 of the genus Parena is mainly found in Oriental region. Despite this widespread distribution, species of the subgenus Bothynoptera are poorly known in Korea. While a total of 14 species have been recorded worldwide, only 3 species have been recorded in Korea. In this study, as a revisional work of Korean known species, a pictorial key and photographs of habitus and male genitalia for each species are provided, with a newly recorded species in Korea.

The family Pyralidae comprises over 6,000 species, and is composed of five subfamilies. Among those, the subfamily Phycitinae includes 3 genera, Addyme Walker, 1863, Calguia Walker, 1863, and Coleothrix Ragonot, 1888, with more than 3,300 species worldwide. However, several species of the genera have been erroneously stated and identified due to confusions caused by high morphological similarities. Therefore, we correct those errors through re-examinations of most of the type specimens, along with a diagnosis and table exhibiting the history of those genera. Additionally, we introduce two misidentified Korean pyralids belonging to the genus Addyme.

Six new species are described that are members of the New Zealand endemic genus Adalmus Reitter (Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae: Euplectitae: Trichonychini: Panaphantina): A. bullerensis sp. nov., A. kanierensis sp. nov., A. karekarensis sp. nov., A. mangamukaensis sp. nov., A. puberilumbus sp. nov., and A. serrilumbus sp. nov. In addition, Dalmisus Sharp is placed as a junior synonym of Adalmus (gen. syn.) and the species Dalmisus batrisodes Sharp, 1886, Plectomorphus longiceps Broun, 1913 and P. longipes Broun, 1912 are placed as junior synonyms of A. velutinus Reitter, 1885 spp. syn. Also, P. rugiceps Broun, 1921 is transferred to the genus Adalmus, comb. nov. Adalmus now holds eight species.

Calonecrinae represent a unique but small subfamily of Nitidulidae that is endemic to South Asia. Their habitats, the South Asian lowland forests, are under the imminent threat of degradation, posing a risk of rapid extinction for these species in their specific locales. Despite the looming threat to their existence, our understanding of this enigmatic group remains limited. We conducted an examination of museum and newly collected specimens, alongside a review of the literature, leading to the discovery of a new species, Calonecrus mindanaoensis, from Mindanao, Philippines. For the first time, the morphology of all immature stages of the Calonecrinae was described, with detailed photographs including SEM images. Additionally, their natural history was uncovered for the first time, revealing that all life stages are uniquely adapted to spending their entire life cycle within sticky resin. We re-evaluated the phylogenetic placement of the Calonecrinae by constructing a phylogenetic tree based on the mitochondrial genome. Calonecrinae are positioned within the Epuraeinae clade and show significant affinity with the genus Trimenus. Consequently, this study proposes reclassifying Calonecrinae as Calonecrini stat nov, an extremely modified tribe within the Epuraeinae.
