The object of this research is to compare zoology and botany name caused by language and science differences of South and North Korea since division. Biological data are collected North Korea biological information (flora and fauna, an illustrated flora and fauna book of North Korea, Etc.) and compared both side data based on national species list of korea, National Institute of Biological Resources. We could built 3,903 species of flora and 1,487 species flora on biological database. The criteria for comparative method is 5 types (korean name difference, scientific name difference, same species, similar species, North Korea endemic species). As a results, plants were identified korean name difference (911 species), scientific name difference (614 species), same species (880 species), North Korea endemic species (1,037 species) of 3,903 species, and animals were korean name difference (685 species), scientific name difference (104 species), same species (199 species), North Korea endemic species (226 species) of the 1,492 species. This results are expected to be in application with cooperation study for recovering bioinformatics differences of South and North Korea.

Daecheongdo and Socheongdo Islands are located in the West Sea of Korea, 210 km away from land, and are military border areas very close to North Korea, making them difficult to access. Although the ecosystem of the islands is relatively well preserved due to the lack of accessibility, research on fungi of the regions is insufficient. Therefore, we aimed to investigate indigenous fungi in these geographically and geopolitically constrained regions. A survey of the indigenous fungal diversity of the islands was conducted in 2018. All specimens were identified at the species level based on morphological and molecular analyses. Among them, six macrofungi-namely, Agaricus menieri, Crepidotus praecipuus, Dichomitus squalens, Hortiboletus amygdalinus, Melanoleuca friesii, and Trametes lactinea-were not previously reported in Korea. Considering that the proportion of unrecorded species is high in the survey area and period as well as the number of samples collected, similar research on adjacent islands may be necessary.

Fibricola cratera is a strigeoid trematode indigenous to North America that, heretofore, was known only to infect wild mammals. Herein, it is reported that an experimental inoculation of a human volunteer produced a patellt infection that lasted 40 months. Symptoms of epigastric discomfort, loose stools and flatulence occurred over the first year of infection and ameliorated thereafter. Eggs per gram of stool were low (${\leq}2$) throughout the course of infection and were not detected by the standard technique of formalin-ether concentration. To monitor infection, the entire stool sample was examined each month after sieving through No. 10 (pore size 2 mm) and 100 (pore size $145{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) sieves and collecting eggs on a No. 325 (pore size $45{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) sieve. This is the first report of a North American strigeoid trematode capable of maturing in a human and is only the second species of strigeoid known to do so. The other species is F. seoulensis which has been implicated in 26 human infections in Korea.

The 2015 version of the bibliographic checklist of Korean spiders from the first checklist by Paik and Kim (1956) is presented, together with a complete bibliography of relevant Korean araneological literature. A total of 620 publications during 1907-2015 including original description on the Korean spiders and records of taxonomic description were critically reviewed. Records only from locations within the present borders of South Korea are listed. A total of 748 spider species of 271 genera belonging to 46 families are confirmed to exist in Korea. Twenty one species, whose distribution or existence within the Korean border are uncertain and lacked valid records, are excluded from the present list pending critical validation. Four spider species endemic to North Korean are listed separately from the present list. One genus, Joopilia Chae and Sohn, 2013 and 2 species, Joopilia jooplis Chae and Sohn, 2013 and Dolomedes jirisanensis Kim and Chae, 2012, which had no designated type species and no diagnosis, are cited as nomina nuda. New synonyms of 15 previously described spider species are proposed. Based on their zoogeographical distribution, the Korean spider fauna was found to be influenced by the northern species, including 36 Holarctic and 72 Palearctic species (14.5% of the total species). Korean endemic species include 160 species (21.5% of the total species). Korean indigenous spiders are also distributed in neighboring countries: 318 species in Russia (42.7%), 460 in China (61.7%), and 488 in Japan (65.5%).

이 논문에서는 우리나라 적지적수 연구사에 관한 사료를 제시하였다. 필자는 조선시대의 임금에 대한 진상을 목적으로 한 적지적수사와 일제강점 초기의 간이적인 적지적수 연구 및 실시사례, 강점중기에 이르러서는 조선수목죽류 기후상적지도, 후기에는 속성수의 절지식재시험 및 지역별 조림수종 선발시험 등에 관한 주요 자료를 해외에서 수집 발굴하였다. 조선수목죽류 기후상적지도는 아직까지 국내에 알려지지 않은 자료로서 향후 우리나라 산지의 지원화 및 산불 피해지 복구조림, 남북통일을 대비한 북한지역 녹화사업의 기초자료로서 뿐만 아니라 고유임상 및 식생연구 등에도 유용하게 사용될 것으로 기대된다.

Cosmid clone으로부터 mating activity를 가지는 pSC13의 양 말단은 1-71 $A{\alpha}3$ 교배유전자좌 Z3부위 2,430 bp와 Y3 region 8,160 bp 부근에서 homology를 지니는 것으로 나타나 교배활성에 필요한 모든 부위를 함유하는 것으로 사료되었다. 그리고 pSCE2는 1-71 $A{\alpha}3$의 Y region의 6,080 bp 부근에서 거의 완전한 homology를 가지는 것으로 보아 $A{\alpha}3$의 Y region을 함유하고 있음을 알 수 있으며, 또한 pSCE1도 MEP의 일부 sequence와도 거의 완전한 homology를 가지는 것으로 나타나 1-71 $A{\alpha}3$ 교배유전자좌와 모두 유사한 염기서열를 모두 지니면서 북미자생 치마버섯의 교배유전자좌의 염기배열이 남미자생의 것과 거의 유사한 분자적 구조를 지니고 있음을 나타내었다. 결정된 DNA sequence는 3265 bp로서 남미산 치마버섯 1-71 stain의 mating활성을 나타내는 $A{\alpha}3$ locus 염기서열중에 Z region과 거의 완전한 약 96%의 homology를 나타내었다. 또한 Polypeptide sequence비교에서도 약 82%의 높은 homology를 나타내었으며, 특히 transcription regulator로 알려진 homeodomain 및 acidic region에서는 각각 약 74%. 82%의 상당히 높은 비율의 homology를 지니고 있음이 확인되었다. 이러한 결과로 보아 남미와 북미의 대륙간에 자생하는 같은 allele type간에도 상당히 높은 비율의 교배유전자좌의 보존이 이루어지고 있음을 알 수 있다.
