Three New Species of Hemicyclops (Copepoda, Cyclopoida, Clausidiidae) from Korea

문성용,김일회 한국동물분류학회 2010 Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity Vol.26 No.3

Three new species of Hemicyclops, H. parilis, H. nasutus and H. membranatus are described from Korean coasts. Hemicyclops parilis n. sp. is closely similar to H. gomsoensis Ho and Kim, but distinguishable from the latter species by having the different shape of genital double somite and spermatophore. Hemicyclops nasutus n. sp. is distinguishable from congeners by having five setae on the first segment of antennule and the ratio 4.26 :1 of the length to width of caudal ramus. Hemicyclops membranatus n. sp. is characterized by the possession of the membranous fringe along margins of cephalothorax and a claw on the third antennal segment.

Unusual Clinical Presentation of Oral Dermoid Cyst

문성용,윤정훈 대한구강악안면병리학회 2016 대한구강악안면병리학회지 Vol.40 No.3

Dermoid cysts represent approximately 34% of developmental cysts in the head and neck region, and they occur mostly at the midline of the floor of the mouth. However, dermoid cysts may also migrate laterally by expansion. The lesion is usually slow growing and painless, presenting as a doughy or rubbery mass that frequently retains pitting after application of pressure. The differential diagnosis for dermoid cysts includes infections, tumors, mucous extravasation phenomena and abnormalities arising during embryonic development. In this report, we present three cases of unusual oral dermoid cysts. The first case developed on the left floor of the mouth, the second case was in the left submandibular area, and the third case was in the sublingual and submental space. All lesions were removed by the intraoral approach. Histopathologic examination revealed a dermoid cyst. The cysts were lined by orthokeratinized stratified squamous epithelium, with a prominent granular cell layer. The cyst walls were composed of fibrous connective tissue that contained sebaceous glands, sweat glands, and hair follicles.

The seasonal variations in the zooplankton community of the southern coastal waters of Korea were investigated seasonally in May, August, November 2005, and February 2006. A total of 74 taxa were sampled, with an average abundance ranging from 2,426~23,793 indiv./m3, among which Noctiluca scintillans predominated. Noctiluca scintillans, Acartia omorii, Acartia erythraea, Paracalanus parvus s. l., Centropages abdominalis, Tortanus forcipatus, and Pseudevadne tergestina were the most abundant species detected. Zooplankton diversity was high around the inner regions during the summer, but it was relatively low in the stations located in the outer regions in the autumn. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) revealed significant differences in the structures of the zooplankton community among the three regions. Our results showed that the seasonal variations in zooplankton communities in the southern coastal waters of Korea were attributable to seasonal changes in temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a concentrations, and N. scintillans blooms; additionally, this particularly study area might have been specifically influenced by the appearance of the Tsushima Warm Current.

New records of Colobomatus mylionus Fukui, 1965 and Clavellisa chinensis (Yü, 1933) (Crustacea: Copepoda) parasitic on marine fish of Korea

문성용 국립생물자원관 2019 Journal of species research Vol.8 No.4

Two parasitic copepods, poecilostomatoid Colobomatus mylionus Fukui, 1965 and siphonostomatoid Clavellisa chinensis (Yü, 1933), were reported for the first time from Korea and redescribed based on the females collected from the marine fish of Korean waters. The C. mylionus was collected from the blackhead seabream, Acanthopagrus schelegelii (Bleeker). Colobomatus mylionus had been frequently reorded from marine teleost fishes from of Eden, Newcastle, Brisbane, Yelloon, and Point Sampson. The second record as C. chinensis redescribed based on the speciemens collected from the gills of a Japanese grenadier anchovy, Coilia nasus Temminck and Schlegel. Some differences were observed between the orginal description of known specimens examined in this study, these differences do not warrant a change in the taxonomic staus of the two species. The attachment site of all two copepods reported from Korea were the cephalic sensory canals and gills.

Spatio-temporal patterns in the zooplankton communities, physicochemical environmental factors, and dominant species were examined in Gamak Bay from April, July, September, and November, 2003. A total of 40 taxa were sampled with a mean abundance of total zooplankton ranging from 270~1,803 inds/m3. The most abundant species was Acartia erythraea, followed by Eurytemora pacifica, Podon polyphemoides, A. omorii, and Paracalanus parvus s. l during the study period. Multivariate analysis revealed significant differences in community structure among three regions: the middle part of the sampling area (B), sites 1, 2 (A) and other sites (C). The number of species and diversity (H') varied significantly among the three regions (p<0.05), but no differences in the mean abundances were observed (p>0.05). In order to investigate factors affecting the correlations between the abundance of dominant species, all zooplankton and environmental factors ware calculated using a correlation analysis. Of these, the abundance of dominant taxon showed positive correlation with seawater temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen (p<0.05). In statistical analysis showed that the environmental factors influencing the variation of the communities were predominantly temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen.

We investigated seasonal changes in the mesozooplankton community structure in November 2006 and February, May, and August 2007 at 12 stations in the semi-enclosed Muan Bay, Korea. Forty taxa were sampled, with an average abundance ranging from 1,459 to 20,078 indiv. m−3; the highest bundance was detected in August 2007, and the lowest in February 2007. Acartia omorii, A. hudsonica, A. ohtsukai, Bestiolina coreana, Calanopia sp., Paracalanus parvus s. l., Cirripedia larvae, Decapoda larvae, and Gastropoda larvae were the most abundant taxa detected. The species iversity of the mesozooplankton was high around the inner regions in August 2007 but it was relatively low in November 2006. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) revealed significant differences in the structure of esozooplankton community among the seasons. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA), performed to examine the relationships among dominant taxa, stations, and environmental variables, showed that most species of copepods were positively correlated with temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a, and COD concentration. Our results suggested that the mesozooplankton community structure observed in this study might be affected partly by the seasonal changes in environmental variables, such as the status of the sluice gates (i.e., open or closed) and the in situ production of resting eggs by major copepods.

Effect of environmental factors on the seasonal variations of zooplankton communities was investigated in the semi– closed Yeoja Bay, Korea from February, April to August, and November 2021. Out of a total 49 species of zooplankton were collected with a predominant of neritic copepods (mainly Paracalanus orientalis, Acartia omorii, Acartia ohtsukai, Centropages abdominalis, Ditrichocorycaeus affinis, and Oithona sp.), accounting for 58.9% of the total abundance of zooplankton. The diversity indices indicated a relatively highest in July, suggesting that diversity is influenced by seasonal temperature, N. scintillans, and neritic copepods species. A cluster analysis with non–metric multidimensional scaling revealed four groups of zooplankton communities. The February sample clustered into Group A, having the lowest mean total abundance and species diversity of zooplankton, consisting mainly of N. scintillans located the whole region. Cluster Group B from the spring season (April to May) and contained the species diversity with some neritic copepods. Cluster Group C from the summer season (June to August) mainly comprised P. orientalis, A. ohtsukai, Oithona sp., and hydromedusae. Cluster Group D from the autumn season (November) mainly comprised P. orientalis, Temora discaudata. Redundancy analysis indicated that abundance is positively correlated with temperature, salinity, and pico chlorophyll-a concentrations. This study showed that planktonic larvae (such as branchyura larvae) and some copepods (including A. omorii, A. ohtsukai, C. sinicus, and C. abdominalis) were significantly vulnerable to zooplankton community of temperature, salinity, and pico chlorophyll-a concentrations.

진해만에서 출현하는 자어에 대한 계절별 군집 변동을 파악하기 위해 2015년과 2016년의 2월(겨울철), 5월(봄철), 8월(여름철), 그리고 11월(가을철)까지 계절별로 수행하였다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 자어는 종 수준까지 총 24과 28종이 출현하였다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 우점종은 청어(Clupea pallasii), 꼼치(Liparis tanakae), 돛양태과 sp. (Callionymidae sp.), 청보리멸(Sillago japonica), 세줄베도라치(Ernogrammus hexagrammus), 그리고 멸치(Engraulis japonica)로 나타났으며, 이들 6종은 조사기간 중 출현한 자어 전체 출현개체수의 77.6%를 차지하였다. 우점종 중 청어와 꼼치는 2015년과 2016년의 겨울철에 출현한 반면에 청보리멸은 여름철에 출현하였다. 종 다양도 지수는 2월과 8월에 높았고 5월에 낮게 나타났다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 자어의 출현개체수를 바탕으로 nMDS 분석을 실시한 결과 계절에 따른 4개의 그룹으로 구분되었다. 본 연구결과 진해만의 자어 군집은 계절에 따른 수온변화와 산란에 참여하는 어종에 따라서 변동하였으며, 잠도와 칠전도 북부해역에서 높은 출현량을 보여 이 지역이 진해만의 주요 산란장으로 이용되고 있음을 의미한다. Seasonal variations in the community structure of larval fish assemblage in Jinhae Bay were investigated in February, May, August and November of 2015, and in the same months in 2016. During the study period, a total of 28 larvae species belonging to 24 families were collected. The dominant species were Clupea pallasii, Liparis tanakae, Callionymidae sp., Sillago japonica, Ernogrammus hexagrammus and Engraulis japonica. These six species accounted for 77.6% of the total number of larvae during the survey period. The larvae of C. pallasii and L. tanakae were exclusively caught in February 2015 and 2016, while those of Apogon lineatus and Sillago japonica were exclusively caught in August 2015 and 2016. Overall, species diversity of the fish larvae was highest in February and August, although it was relatively low in May. The results of the non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) analysis using the number of individual larval fish showed that they are divided into four seasonal groups. Our results showed that the community of larval fish in Jinhae Bay was affected by seasonal changes in temperature and the emergence of spawning fish species. Additionally, we suggest that the high abundance of larval fish came from around Jam-do and the northern part of Chilcheon-do; these locations are the main spawning grounds of Jinhae Bay.

Huge Central Ossifying Fibroma on the Anterior Mandible : A Case Report

문성용,김수관,김학균,윤정훈 대한구강악안면병리학회 2012 대한구강악안면병리학회지 Vol.36 No.4

The ossifying fibroma (OF), with the microscopic features of trabuclae or spherules of bone or cementum-like material in a cellular fibrous connective tissue stroma, is one of the most common benign fibro-osseous lesions in the jaw bones. The OF often occurs in patients from 20 to 40 years of age, which is a definite female predilection. The mandibles are involved far more often than the maxillas, especially the pre-molar and molar regions. It is slow-growing, bone producing, asymptomatic and well-demarcated. The OF is a disorder of odontogenesis or osteogenesis ascribed to bone marrow stroma cells (BMSCs) abnormality. However, the detailed mechanisms of OF’s oncogenesis, cytodifferentiation, and tumor progression remain unknown. In this article, we reported a huge central OF on the anterior mandible. The lesion was enucleated and peripheral ostectomy was done via intraoral approach and reconstructed with vascularized iliac block bone graft. After 25 months of follow up, the tumor had not recurred. This case shows that OF may be successfully treated by conservative surgical enucleation and peripheral ostectomy.
