Abstract Two raninoid crabs, Lyreidus tridentatus De Haan, 1841 and Cosmonotus mclaughlinae Tavares, 2006 from around Jeju Island and the Straits of Korea, are firstly reported from Korean waters. The raninoid crabs currently comprise 4 species in Korea. Brief descriptions and illustrations of selected parts are provided in this article as evidence supporting their correct identifications.

Abstract Two Parapenaeus species, P. australiensis Dall, 1957 and P. fissurus (Spence Bate, 1881), collected from around Jeju Island and east of Busan, southern Korean waters, are briefly described here. Both species are newly recorded from Korean waters, with the former record representing a considerable range extension from the tropical western Pacific to the northern East China Sea. Distributional and morphological accounts of these species are presented.

AbstractDrawing on insights from International Relations and social movement theories, I explore anti-base protests on Jeju Island and the ensuing politics of peace. I find that the clash between activists and policymakers is fundamentally tied to different views regarding the legitimacy of state actions on security policy and whether actors see states or people as the primary object of security. These real-world differences are mirrored in realist and critical perspectives of international politics. Policymakers tend to view the naval base as a means of protecting national interests and enhancing maritime security. Meanwhile, anti-base activists seek emancipation from an illegitimate state project uprooting a peaceful community. However, the perpetuation of a powerful realist discursive structure within the South Korean security and foreign policy establishment presents significant hurdles for anti-base movements in advancing their cause. My findings are based on ethnographic research in Gangjeong village in July 2012, interviews with activists and policymakers in South Korea, and an analysis of state and activist discourse in both Korean and English language sources.

The Jeju April 3 Peace Park was built in 2008 to commemorate the South Korean state’s atrocities toward civilians on Jeju Island before and during the Korean War. Situated in the distinctive local context of remembering, the park reveals its unique ability to manifest long-suppressed trauma through the meanings of both indigenous spirituality and materiality. A national commemorative event has activated the park even further to become a liberating theater of mourning for suppressed mourners. While it inevitably embraces the conventional aesthetics and rituals of the official commemoration, the park simultaneously facilitates the empathic recollection of the tragic event at the uncanny moments of symbolic work that have been mediated through such uncustomary media as mourners’ bodies, improvised props, and local dialects.

Areopaguristes japonicus (Miyake, 1961) is recorded from South Korean waters for the first time with the collection of an ovigerous female. The zoeal and megalopal stages of this species are described from laboratory reared material and compared to larvae of eight other described Diogenidae species from the northwestern Pacific. The larvae of A. japonicas are distinguished from those of other diogenids by mediodorsal spines on zoeal pleomeres 3 and 4 and having a spine on the mediodorsal margin of the megalopal pleomere 2. A provisional key for identifying diogenid zoeas from the northwestern Pacific is provided.

To date, 19 species of spiny lobsters from the genus Panulirus have been discovered, of which only P. japonicus, P. penicilatus, P. stimpsoni, and P. versicolor have been documented in South Korean waters. In this study, we aimed to identify and update the current list of spiny lobster species that inhabit South Korean waters based on the morphological features and the phylogenetic profile of cytochrome oxidase I (COI) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Spiny lobsters were collected from the southern and eastern coasts of Jeju Island, South Korea. Phylogenetic analyses were performed using neighbor-joining (NJ), maximum likelihood (ML), and Bayesian inference (BI) methods. The ML tree was used to determine the spiny lobster lineages, thereby clustering the 17 specimens collected in this study into clades A, B, C, and D, which were reciprocally monophyletic with P. japonicus, P. homarus homarus, P. longipes, and P. stimpsoni, respectively. These clades were also supported by morphological examinations. Interestingly, morphological variations, including the connected pleural and transverse groove at the third abdominal somite, were observed in four specimens that were genetically confirmed as P. japonicus. This finding is novel within the P. japonicus taxonomical reports. Additionally, this study updates the documentation of spiny lobsters inhabiting South Korean waters as P. longipes and P. homarus homarus were recorded for the first time in this region.

Abstract Two galatheids, Allogalathea elegans (Adams & White, 1848) and Phylladiorhynchus pusillus (Henderson, 1885), are newly reported from Korean waters in material from around Jeju Island. The two genera, Allogalathea Baba, 1969 and Phylladiorhynchus Baba, 1969 are also reported from Korea for the first time. Now, the known Korean galatheids consist of six species belonging to three genera. Illustrations and diagnostic descriptions of the two newly recorded species are given herein.

Two inachid crabs,Paratymolus pubescensMiers, 1879 from Geomundo andLitosus sexspinosus(Miers, 1884) from Jeju Island, are briefly described here. The two species are unique representatives of their respective genera in local waters. Morphological and distributional accounts of these species are discussed.
