Аннотация:Jeju Island of South Korea is a volcanic island formed from eruption approximately two million years ago.
Considering its origin and location closer to the subtropical waters, the difference in make-up of biodiversity
has always been topic of interest to many experts. Five most naturally maintained beaches were selected
from pre-examination and sediments were sampled using filter method. Results indicated nematodes belonging
to families Chromadoridae, Desmodoridae, Xyalidae and Thoracostomopsidae were most abundant. For this
study, five species belonging to the family Thornmjacostomopsidae Filipjev, 1927 discovered from the survey
are redescribed. Of the five species, two belong to the genus Enoploides Saveljev, 1912, rest belong to
Enoplolaimus de Man, 1893, Mesacanthion Filipjev, 1927 and Paramesacanthion Wieser, 1953 respectively.
