Background: Ranavirus is an emerging infectious disease which has been linked to mass mortality events in various amphibian species. In this study, we document the first mass mortality event of an adult population of Dybowski's brown frogs (Rana dybowskii), in 2017, within a mountain valley in South Korea. Results: We confirmed the presence of ranavirus from all collected frogs (n = 22) via PCR and obtained the 500 bp major capsid protein (MCP) sequence from 13 individuals. The identified MCP sequence highly resembled Frog virus 3 (FV3) and was the same haplotype of a previously identified viral sequence collected from Huanren brown frog (R. huanrenensis) tadpoles in South Korea. Human habitat alteration, by recent erosion control works, may be partially responsible for this mass mortality event. Conclusion: We document the first mass mortality event in a wild Korean population of R. dybowskii. We also suggest, to determine if ranavirus infection is a threat to amphibians, government officials and researchers should develop continuous, country-wide, ranavirus monitoring programs of Korean amphibian populations.

Diets of four snake species in South Korean mountain forests

Understanding snake prey breadth, within forest ecosystems, may elucidate their ecological role. Wedetermined the prey items of 35 individuals of four snake species (11 through induced regurgitationanalysis and 24 through molecular fecal analysis) collected from five mountain forests between May2016 and October 2018, located within South Korea. Snake prey breadth spanned across six smallmammal (4 rodents and 2 shrews) and five amphibian (2 urodeles and 3 anurans) species. Smallmammals were more frequently detected as prey items than amphibians, but the proportion betweensmall mammal and amphibian prey varied by different snake species. Two rodent prey species, Musmusculus and Craseomys regulus, made up 68.6% of the total amount of prey consumed (24 of 35 preyitems). Elaphe dione and Gloydius intermedius samples contained only small mammal prey remains,whereas Rhabdophis lateralis and G. ussuriensis appeared to predate both small mammals and amphib ians. These findings show snakes’ role in controlling small mammal population sizes in mountain forestsand highlight the importance of conserving snake biodiversity native to South Korean mountain forests.

Background: The Slender racer (Orientocoluber spinalis Peters, 1866) has recently been reclassified to the new genus Orientocoluber from Hierophis. Ecological knowledge of this species is limited due to its highly mobile behavior. On 17 July 2020, we captured a female O. spinalis on Oeyeon Island, Boryeong-si, Republic of Korea, and collected its feces for a diet analysis. We observed snake scales from the collected feces and subsequently determined the prey species through morphological and molecular methods. Results: We initially hypothesized that the extracted fecal sample scales belonged to H. vibakari, due to their thin keel and rhombus shape. We also amplified H. vibakari DNA from the extracted fecal sample using Illumina sequencing methods. Our morphological and molecular results suggest that O. spinalis predates H. vibakari on Oeyeon Island. Conclusion: This is the first report of O. spinalis predating another snake species, ophiophagy, and implies that H. vibakari may be a crucial prey item for O. spinalis on Oeyeon Island.
