This macrophyte species appeared for the first time in the lake in 2004, lasted approximately three months and was considered as a temporary habitat. The chironomid community was very abundant in the stands of this macrophyte species, which developed at three sites. The recorded species belong to three subfamilies: Chironominae (Chironomini and Tanytarsini), Orthocladiinae and Tanypodinae. Species composition varied in time, though Orthocladiinae with their representative Cricotopus sylvestris gr. dominated throughout the entire sampling period, accounting for approx. 60% of the total community. However, the presence of this species group experienced a marked drop to only 10% in September when Chironomini larvulae and Paratanytarsus sp. prevailed. Furthermore, the share of Endochironomus albipennis (Meigen 1830) in relation to other species was also consistently higher. NMDS ordination and cluster analysis separated three main colonization periods based on larval abundance. RDA analysis indicated the influence of environmental variables, especially Secchi depth, macrophyte dry weight, depth and water temperature, on chironomid community structure.

Vol. 30, No. 4: 240-247, October 2014 http://dx.doi.org/10.5635/ASED.2014.30.4.240 Short communication Four Unrecorded Species of Tubificid Oligochaetes (Annelida: Clitellata) in Korea Jeounghee Lee1, Jongwoo Jung1,2,* 1The Division of EcoCreative, Ewha Womans University, Seoul 120-750, Korea 2Department of Science Education, Ewha Womans University, Seoul 120-750, Korea ABSTRACT Tubificid oligochaetes are common and frequently dominant in freshwater benthic habitats. They are so tolerant to water pollution that they are often used as biological indicators. Faunistic studies of Korean freshwater oligochaetes have been actively conducted recently. The most well studied oligochaete family in Korea is the tubificids following the naidids. Nine species of tubificids have been reported so far. Nevertheless, many species of tubificids still remain to be discovered in Korea. In this study, we added four species of tubificid oligochaetes to the Korean fauna, including Linmodrilus profundicola (Verrill, 1871), Potamothrix heuscheri (Bretscher, 1900), Tubifex blanchardi Vejdovsk´y, 1891, and Ilyodrilus templetoni (Southern, 1909) based on specimens collected from three locations in Korea: Cheonan-si, Geoje-si, and Seocheon-gun. In particular, P. heuscheri was first reported in Asia. Keywords: tubificid, freshwater oligochaete, Korea, Linmodrilus profundicola, Potamothrix heuscheri, Tubifex blanchardi, Ilyodrilus templetoni INTRODUCTION aréde, 1862, Monopylephorus rubroniveus Levinsen, 1884, Bothrioneurum vejdoskyanum Stolc, 1888, Rhyacodrilus Many species of Oligochaeta occur in a variety of freshwater coccineus (Vejdovsky, 1875), Rhyacodrilus sulptensis Timm, environments such as puddles, rice paddies, reservoirs, brooks, 1990 and Tubifex tubifex (Müller, 1774).

Methods: Oligochaeta specimens were collected from eight sampling stations in July 2007. Four stations were located in rural areas and the other four in urban areas. Were measured concentrations of dissolved oxygen, phosphorus and total nitrogen, pH, electrical conductivity and BOD. To evaluate the influence of taxonomic level, Oligochaeta specimens were identified at the family and species. We performed a principal component analysis (PCA) to determine which abiotic variables best explained the distribution of Oligochaeta along the sampling stations. Cluster analysis was performed with the abundance of Oligochaeta in the family and species levels, separately, to assess the degree of similarity between the stations and check the level of identification of organisms could interfere with the associations formed.
