A, 34(1), pp. 41–61, March 21, 2008 Digeneans (Trematoda) Found in Freshwater Fishes of Wakayama, Tokushima, and Kochi Prefectures, Japan Takeshi Shimazu* Nagano Prefectural College, 8–49–7 Miwa, Nagano, 380–8525 Japan Abstract Freshwater fishes (25 identified and 5 unidentified species) were caught in rivers in Wakayama Prefecture (Kinki), and Tokushima and Kochi Prefectures (Shikoku), Japan, in 1998, 1999, and 2000 and examined fresh for adult digeneans (Trematoda). Digeneans of nine species were found, mainly in the digestive tract. Eight of them were identified as previously known species, and one remained unidentified. A single specimen of the latter, Allocreadium sp., was found in Zacco temminckii (Temminck and Schlegel) (Cyprinidae) (Japanese name kawamutsu) from the Kaifu River in Kaiyo, Tokushima Prefecture. It probably represents an undescribed species. The digeneans are described and figured. Their final fish hosts, geographical distributions, and life cycles, where known in Japan, are discussed. Key words : Trematoda, digeneans, freshwater fishes, Wakayama Prefecture, Tokushima Prefec- ture, Kochi Prefecture, Japan.

    Embarking on Biomass Power Generation Business in Tsudakaigan-cho, Tokushima City, Tokushima Prefecture February 25, 2019 Osaka Gas Co., Ltd. Osaka Gas Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Chuo-ku, Osaka; President: Takehiro Honjo) has decided to invest in Tokushima Tsuda Biomass Power Plant Limited Liability Company (Head Office: Tokushima City, Tokushima Prefecture; Representative Partner: RENOVA, Inc.) and to take part in the construction and operation of a biomass-fired power plant with an electricity generation capacity of 74,800 kW (hereinafter, Tokushima Tsuda Biomass Power Plant) in Tsudakaigan-cho, Tokushima City, Tokushima Prefecture. This project is the sixth biomass power generation business that the Daigas Group has participated in, following Nagoya Power Plant and Nagoya II Power Plant (Chita-gun, Aichi Prefecture), Ichihara Biomass Power Plant (under construction in Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture), Matsusaka Wood Biomass Power Plant (Matsusaka City, Mie Prefecture), and Sodegaura Biomass Power Plant (under construction in Sodegaura City, Chiba Prefecture). In Shikoku, the Tokushima Tsuda Biomass Power Plant is the Daigas Group's second power plant following the Hayama Wind Farm Power Plant. For this project, RENOVA, Inc. and Osaka Gas will combine their knowledge of biomass power generation to ensure stable operation of the business in close cooperation with local partners. Incidentally, project finance is being used to raise part of the required funds for the construction and operation of the power plant. The Daigas Group aims to secure approximately 1,000 MW of renewable energy-based electricity supply capacity in Japan and abroad by around 2030. Its participation in this project is in line with this plan.

    Setonaikai National Park Was Established in 1934 As One of the First National Parks in Japan

    An inland archipelago and year-round shimmering Setonaikai seascape where people and nature live as one 16 Setonaikai National Park was established in 1934 as one of the first national parks in Japan. The national park is surrounded National Park by the five straits of Kitan, Naruto, Kanmon, Hoyo and Akashi. The park extends over 11 prefectures and covers some 900,000 hectares including the sea area, making it the largest national park in the country. The main feature of the national park is its archipelagic landscape formed by countless islands of all sizes. The Seto Inland Sea can be broadly divided into four regions: from the east, the Awaji Island region, Bisan-seto region, Geiyo Islands region, and Suonada region. The national parkʼs landscape has a complex structure consisting of relatively large sea areas known as nada, “open sea” or wan, “bay” and narrow channels known as seto or kaikyo, which both translate as “strait”. The inland sea, which is separated from the open ocean, is characterized by signifi cant tidal variation and is known for its fast currents. Culture has fl ourished in the Seto Inland Sea region since ancient times and a major feature of the region is its open, friendly local environment that integrates human life as part of the landscape in the form of terraced fields, fishing towns waiting for favorable tides, and many other scenic points. Since ancient times, the region has prospered as a major domestic and international port for sea traffic, including kitamaebune cargo ships that sailed the Japan Sea during the Edo period (1603-1868), and when Korean delegations to Japan visited the region.
