다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The present papers (I and II) deal with the total records f Koran subterranean animals reported during the last forty years since its first one in 1938 through 1978, They have been polished in 33 different articles by 29 authors Iron 7 different countries. They on)ist 109 species in 53 families in 7 classes belonging to 3 different phyla collected from 45 caves and 9 wells around the country. Predominant are arthropods enumerating 101 species (92.7%), of which insects are represented by 37 species. The number of species reported exclusively from subterranean habitats, presumably troglobionts, amount to 60 (55%). Discussions regarding the systematic situation of each taxa in question are made and the rate of occurrences of totally subterranean animals is determined and compared by respective taxa in a few different geographic regions. Also checklists are prepared and given in systematic order which are followed by general analysis. Some attempts are also made to give suggestions, hopefully, for the progress and improvement of Korean biospeleology. The present article, Part II, is the continuation of Part I which deals with invertebrates(except insects) and mammals, and appears in the Korean Journal of Zoology, Vol. 21, Mo. 2 of the 1978 edition.
