We surveyed the biodiversity of lepidopterous insects in Jindo Island using UV bucket trap in July 2016 to determine the relationship between surrounding environment and ecosystem in order to contribute to biodiversity conservation and management of coastal islands in Korea. Based on our survey results, a total of 262 lepidopterous insect species in 16 families were collected from Jindo Island. Members belonging to families Noctuidae and Geometridae made up approximately half of the total species (86 species [32.82%] in Noctuidae and 44 species [16.79] in Geometridae). There were 29 species (11.07%) belonging to Crambidae and 28 species (10.69%) belonging to Pyralidae. As a result of all collections based on previous literature and this study, a total of 730 species belonging to 34 families were collected from Jindo Island, including 33 protected species, 242 species (33.15%) belonging to Noctuidae (the most abundant), 124 species (16.99%) belonging to Geometridae, 79 species (10.82%) belonging to Crambidae, and 65 species (8.90%) belonging to Pyralidae. The most frequently collected species was Lamoria glaucalis in this syudy.

Social media websites have continued to proliferate, and the way in which people stay connected has also evolved. The issue of user loyalty a website remains crucial given that the competition is severe. Websites need loyal users who continue to use their sites to survive and be successful. In this research, we applied self-regulation framework to investigate the factors leading to user loyalty to a social media site. In particular, the role of sense of belonging, which is a common emotional reaction to a social media site, is examined. A survey of users in a popular social media site in Taiwan was conducted. Results show that both sense of belonging and service quality have direct effect on loyalty, whereas trust affects loyalty indirectly by fostering a sense of belonging. Service quality affects loyalty through trust and sense of belonging. Notably, trust has insignificant effect on loyalty as originally proposed. Users are then classified into two groups, namely, heavy and light users, based on their usage. Among light users, service quality has no direct effect on loyalty. Therefore, sense of belonging has sole direct impact on loyalty. Both service quality and sense of belonging contribute to loyalty in users who spend more time online. Implications of this study are also discussed.

This report is intended to describe as brief as possible the result of study on purity of the Korean Bee Honey. Purity of bee honey was measured by scaling the enzyme activities of two different honey groups: such as, the standard group and control group each including the samples of honey originated from the resource of acarcia, chestnut or miscellaneous origin. The samples of honey were collected from different sources: to wit, honey belonging to the standard group were collected from the township of Seoboo, Yangju county, Kyunggido province, Korea, while honey belonging to the control group were collected from the street side shops, market or the companies producing the secondary food from honey. The results of this study were summarized as follow: 1. It was found that honey belonging to the standard group contained less moisture than those belonging to the control group. Republic of Korea Ministry of Health and Social Affairs Food Control Regulation stipulates that honey must contain moisture less than 20%. The samples of' both groups contained moisture more than 20%, although honey belonging to the control group were relatively more so than honey belonging to the standard group. 2. Honey belonging to the standard group were found stronger in sugar reduction activities than those belonging to the control group. It was also noted that honey of acracia origin was strongest in reduction activities of the three different origin in the same group. 3. $\alpha$-Amylase and $\beta$-amylase were discovered to have activated more strongly in honey belonging to the standard group than those belonging to the control group. The enzyme activitie, varied depending on the origin of plant where honey comes from. For instance, honey of miscellaneous origin indicated the strongest activities in $\alpha$-amylase while honey of chestnut origirt indicated strongest in $\beta$-amylase.
