General morphology, distribution, classification, ecology and ontogeny extant crinoids are summarized and reviewed, with particular emplasis placed on the stalked crinoids. Japan is located at or near the northernmost limit of distributions of many stalked crinoid species, which are widely distributed in the western Pacific. Sixteen species of stalked crinoids are currently known from Japanese waters. Thus Japan is an excellent place for the biological study of crinoids, and further research and interesting results are expected.

Taxonomy based on skeletal morphology of the scleractinian corals, especially zooxanthellate corals, is problematic because of the limited number of key characters, their plasticity, and possible morphological convergence. Recently several molecular analyses have been conducted, the controversial results of which compared with the morphological taxonomy. These molecular studies contain several problems. This paper briefly reviews the problems of traditional taxonomy and molecular-based phylogeny, and discusses the recent molecular work, mainly molecular analyses of the subfamily Faviina. Phylogenetic relationships based on the molecular analyses of species in the Faviina did not support the present morphological taxonomy, but fit the geographical distribution, suggesting morphological convergence, and the mode of reproduction. Furthermore, it was found in some cases that phylogenetically closely related species share several morphological characters that were used in past studies, but not used in the current taxonomy. In conclusion, this paper proposes one way to utilize both the morphological taxonomy and molecular analyses in the scleractinian corals.

ZooBank is intended as the official registry of Zoological Nomenclature, according to the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. Since its launch in 2005, more than 73, 000 records of Nomenclatural Acts, >29, 000 Publications, and >11, 000 Authors have been deposited in ZooBank as of this writing. An explanatory introduction for ZooBank and proposed three scenarios for mandatory registration of names governed by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature is given in the Japanese language to popularize relevant issues in domestic taxonomic researchers.

The Tantulocarida are small maxillopodan crustaceans ectoparasitic on amphipods, cumaceans, isopods, tanaidaceans, copepods and ostracods. The group consists of five families, 17 genera, and 25 species, two of which have so far been recorded in Japanese waters. Their taxonomy is based mainly on the morphology of their tantulus larvae and, in addition, adult females and males. Recently two life cycles have been discovered in tantulocaridans : parthenogenetic and sexual. The dispersal phases are tantulus larvae and sexual males and females, all of which are non-feeding stages. Host-specificity seems to be relatively low because a single species has been found infesting nine species of copepods in six families and three orders. These parasites may suppress their hosts' ecdysis. Future studies on the Tantulocarida are proposed.

This article reviews our Internet project activities to establish on-line databases of Japanese moths. Though many large on-line databases of moths are available in the world, only a few resources were available in Japan until our projects began. Our projects consist of the following three parts. "An Identification Guide of Japanese Moths Compiled by Everyone" (http://www.jpmoths.org/) is a huge database which stores 12,000 photographs of 3,200 species. "List MJ: A tentative checklist of Japanese moths" (http://listmj.mothprog.com/) is an up-to-date checklist of Japanese moths. "Gaml" (http://www.mothprog.com/moth/gaml) is a mailing-list for exchanging various information concerning taxonomic, ecological and faunastic studies on moths. One of these "Everyone's Handmade Identification Guide…" is a characteristic project. Most of photographs in this database are taken and identified by anonymous collaborators including some researchers. When a contributor posts a moth image on the bulletin board at the website, someone identifies the image and then the webmaster registers the identified image in the database. These projects provide a communication base for all those interested in moths. They are also useful for researchers since the posted images sometimes include remarkable information for them. These projects will contribute to international projects of biodiversity databases. Further information gathering and improving of accuracy of identification are issues in the future.
