On the other hand, 30,399 specieshave been recorded in Japan located near Korea (Kwon etal., 1994). Especially, the Korean Peninsula has high insectdiversity due to its variety of nature in terms of topography,geography and hydrology characterized with a variety ofclimates for small land space, stretching north and south,rising to the east, and inclining gently towards thesouthwest.

The result of data analysis of 8 years showed that, of the total 2,873 members of the family Podicipedidae, there were 908 individuals (31.60%) of the great crested grebe (Podiceps cristatus) observed in the Nakdong River estuary area. The analysis of early 1990s and mid-2000s showed that, in terms of early 1990s, while a small number was observed in October, the number of birds arriving began to increase in November, with the highest number observed in December. In mid-2000s, the smallest number was observed in October, with the number of birds arriving increasing in November and the highest number observed in December. Monthly average number of individuals was approximately 1.7 times higher in 2000s than in 1990s. In terms of the number of individuals per month, there was no significant difference between the time period between November and March of early 1990s and mid-2000s (P<0.343).
