A taxonomic study of the intertidal Thinobius Kiesenwetter in Korea is presented. Three species are recognized, two which identified as new (Thinobius jejuensis Lee & Ahn, sp. n. and koreanus Yoo, n.) kuroshio (Sawada) recorded for first time Korea. key, descriptions, habitus photographs, line drawings diagnostic characters these three provided to facilitate identification.
Oiketicoides gohadoensis Roh & Lee, sp. nov. is described as new to science. The morphology of male adult, including genitalia, described, and DNA barcodes for precise identification the species are provided. A parasitoid, Neophryxe psychidis Townsend, 1916 (Diptera, Tachinidae) O. also reported first time in Korea, together with its barcode sequence.
The genus Proutia Tutt, 1899 (Lepidoptera, Psychidae) comprises 14 species found throughout the world. In East Asia, three species, Proutiachinensis Hättenschwiler & Chao, 1990, P.maculatella Saigusa Sugimoto, 2014 and P.nigra 2014, are known from Korea, Japan China.Proutiacornucervae Roh Lee, sp. nov. is newly recognised Korea. addition, Bruandellaniphonica (Hori) transferred to Proutia. Male genitalia of described DNA barcodes provided.
Abstract The North Pacific distribution of coastal staphylinids may be explained as the result either dispersal or vicariance. intertidal rove beetle genus Diaulota is a submarine group that occurs on coasts Northern Hemisphere. We performed phylogenetic analysis using molecular characters (3241 bp) to investigate their biogeographic history and patterns. data were analysed by parsimony, Bayesian, maximum likelihood methods. Model-based analyses showed same pattern species relationships, but...
A taxonomic study of Korean Pseudoxyporus Nakane and Sawada is presented. Among the recognized four species, three species are reported for first time in Korea [Pseudoxyporus cyanipennis (Kirschenblatt), dybowskii (Solsky), melanocephalus (Kirschenblatt)]. Photographs habitus key to provided.
As a result of investigation on insect fauna islands in Korea, Rondibilis (Rondibilis) amanoi (Hayashi, 1961) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) was newly discovered. (R.) is re-described based female specimen collected from Is. Heuksan, Jeollanam Province, Korea 2022. A plate diagnostic characteristics and key to four Korean species also provided.
Carpelimus koreanus Lee and Ahn, new species, is described from Korea. The species significant because it belongs to the transitional group (comprising almost exclusively tropical species) between Thinodromus Kraatz Leach. A description, habitus photograph, line drawings of diagnostic characters are provided facilitate identification.
A species delimitation study of Korean CafiusStephens, 1829 using molecular characters (COI and 28S) is presented. Six coastal are recognized, one which described as Cafius calculosus Lee & Ahn sp. nov. in the intertidal zone southern part peninsula based on morphological characters. The new closely related very similar to C. mimulus (Sharp, 1874). Interspecific genetic divergence COI uncorrected p-distance ranged from 10.77% 18.78%, while intraspecific 0.00% 2.51% among six species. All...
The monotypic Platydeleaster bimaculatus Schülke, only known from the Russian Far East, is discovered for first time in Korea. Redescription and illustrations of habitus diagnostic characters are provided to facilitate identification.
A taxonomic study of the genus Noterus Clairville in Korea is presented. Three species including a new species, coreanus sp. nov., are recognized. Habitus photographs description, mtDNA information, and diagnostic characters with illustrations provided. key to males Korean also
This study aimed to establish a systematic plan for an integrated inventory of insects based on long-term faunistic research Korean islands. Preparing the involved following processes: 1) examination 6,117 species belonging 402 families and 29 orders occurring 541 islands, survey status insect islands; 2) identification 498 110 14 preliminary surveys 10 human-inhabited islands in 2021 efficient island insects; 3) list species, voucher specimen, habitat information, image data each addition...
The genus Coprophilus Latreille is represented in Korea by (Coprophilus) sibiricus Bernhauer and (Zonyptilus) marginalis (Reitter). They are reported for the first time South Korean Peninsula, respectively. We compared marginalis, recently resurrected from synonymy, with pennifer Motschulsky. Our morphological molecular data supported that different species. A key to species, descriptions, habitus photographs illustrations of diagnostic characters provided.
Two basal Aleocharinae species (Deinopsis modesta Sharp and Adinopsis nippon Maruyama Kamezawa) are discovered for the first time in Korean Peninsula. Diagnoses, habitus photographs, illustrations of male genitalia these two provided.
