As a result of the curation of NIBR Insect Collection (NIBR, 2016), we found a new species and 4 newly recordedspecies, Tropideres distinguendus sp. nov., Acorynus latirostris (Sharp), Illis anna Shibata, Phaulimia confinis Sharp, Choraguscissoides Sharp. The genera, Acorynus Schoenherr and Illis Jordan are also newly recorded to Korean fauna. The newspecies, Tropideres distinguendus is easily distinguished from other species by the tubercles and dorsal pubescence pattern.Phaulimia confinis is similar to P. rufobasis, but easily distinguished from the latter by blackish elytral color and tibialpubescence band. Choragus cissoides is similar to C. cryphaloides, but easily distinguished from the latter by the absenceof lateral carina of pronotum.
A taxonomic review of the Acrotona Thomson in Korea is presented. The genus is represented in Korea by 10 speciesincluding two new species, A. koreana Lee & Ahn, sp. nov. and A. rufescens Lee & Ahn, sp. nov. Two other species,A. paeksongrica Paśnik and A. suyangsani Paśnik, are synonymized under A. pseudotenera (Cameron) and A. lutulenta(Sharp), respectively, and four species, A. grata (Cameron), A. lutulenta (Sharp), A. pseudotenera (Cameron) and A. vicaria(Kraatz), are identified for the first time in South Korea. A key to the Korean species and illustrations of habitus anddiagnostic characters are provided for the new species.
The genus Coccus is reviewed as 4 species from Korea, including a new species, C. ficicola sp. n., and a first recordof C. maloti (Takahashi, 1956). A key to four species of Coccus known from Korea is provided with diagnoses, illustrationsand photographs.
The subgenus Compsidia Mulsant, 1839 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae) in Korea is reviewed. Habitus andgenitalia of two species belong to the subgenus are described and illustrated. Larva and pupa of the known species, Saperda(Compsidia) populnea (Linné, 1758) are also described with its biological note.
The subfamily Pimplinae comprising more than 1,700 described species within 77 genera worldwide. Sixty-nine specieswithin 20 genera have been recorded from South Korea. Among them, the genus Endromopoda is a small sized groupin the subfamily Pimplinae with 11 described species from Nearctic, Oriental and Palaearctic regions. This genus is newlyrecorded from South Korea for the first time. Genus Endromopoda can easily be distinguished from other genera of Pimplinaeby the following characters: Distinctly depressed ovipositor, with perpendicular teeth on apex; elongated propodeum.In this study, we report three unrecorded South Korean species, Endromopoda arundinator (Fabricius,1804), Endromopoda detrita (Holmgren, 1860) and Endromopoda phragmitidis (Perkins, 1957). In addition,diagnoses, photographs of newly recorded species and a key to the species of South Korean Endromopodaare provided.
Detailed morphological studies and molecular analyses based on plastid-encoded rbcL gene sequences were undertaken on Peyssonnelia species, a poorly known genus from Korea. We report new records for the Korean coast, Peyssonnelia harveyana and P. rumoiana. Peyssonnelia harveyana is chiefly characterized by P. rubra-type anatomy, closely packed perithallial filaments in firm matrix, hypothallial filaments arranged in parallel rows, thalli with appressed margins, hypobasal calcification, and unicellular rhizoids. Peyssonnelia rumoiana is principally characterized by two vegetative features, hypothallial filaments arranged in a polyflabellate layer, and perithallial filaments arising from the whole upper surface of each hypothallial cell (Peyssonnelia rubra-type anatomy). Our rbcL analyses revealed that P. harveynana and P. rumoiana were placed within a clade of Peyssonnelia. We also propose the new combination, Sonderophycus cauliferus comb. nov., for previous Peyssonnelia caulifera. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that our S. cauliferus was placed within a clade of Sonderophycus.
The continuous exploration in deep seawater from Korea makes us lead the discovery of ancient Chlorophyta, Palmophyllum, in the Korean coast. The phylogenetic analyses of 18S rRNA and rbcL genes demonstrate that our specimens are Palmophyllum crassum (Naccari) Rabenhorst, recorded in Japan and clearly distinguished from P. umbracola from New Zealand and California, USA. Palmophyllum crassum grows in the subtidal region, 8-30 m deep, and has a crustose thallus which is closely adherent to substrates such as non-geniculate crustose coralline algae, sponge, shells, or rocks. P. crassum is composed of numerous spherical cells embedded in the gelatinous matrix. The discovery of this ancient green seaweed implies that the Korean coast is one of the hotspots of algal species diversity and has the suitable marine environment for algal speciation. We suggest the grounds to conserve the Korean coast environmentally as the biodiversity center of marine species by studying the phylogeny of seaweeds.
Four species of the families Gnaphosidae and Clubionidae are reported. Cladothela unmunensis n. sp. is described from Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. Drassodes longispinus Marusik and Logunov, 1995, Gnaphosa inconspecta Simon, 1878 and Clubiona tongdaoensis Zhang, Yin, Bao and Kim, 1997 are newly recorded to the Korean spider fauna.
Four new species of the spider genera Trilacuna Tong and Li, 2007, Orchestina Simon, 1882 and Hahnia C. L. Koch, 1841 are described from Korea; Trilacuna hansanensis n. sp., Orchestina infirma n. sp., Hahnia montana n. sp. and Hahnia implexa n. sp. The genera Trilacuna and Orchestina are reported from Korea for the first time.
Four species of the family Lycosidae are reported. Alopecosa gachangensis n. sp. is described from Daegu, Korea. A. aculeata (Clerck, 1757), Lycosa boninensis Tanaka, 1989 and Pardosa hokkaido Tanaka and Suwa, 1986 are newly recorded to the Korean spider fauna.
Three new species of the subgenus Bessobates of the genus Netelia Gray, 1860 are described. Two new species, Netelia (Bessobates) sp. nov. 1 and N. (B.) sp. nov. 2, are described and illustrated from South Korea and Japan. N. (B.) sp. nov. 3 is reported from Brunei. Descriptions of three new species, photos and illustrations of male genitalia are provided. This research was supported by Basic Science Research Program through the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) funded by the Ministry of Education (NRF-2016R1A6A3A03007788).
The Banchinae are a large cosmopolitan subfamily that includes approximately 1,800 species in 67 genera. The number of species in South Korea is still pooly known and only 18 of the 312 Eastern Palaearctic species have been reported (Yu et al., 2016). Most species are koinobiont endoparasitoids of lepidopteran larvae and pupae. Teleutaea is a moderately sized genus, comprises 20 described species from Palaearctic, Neotropic and Oriental regions. One species has been described from Mexico. The data of the species from the neighbor countries was summarized as follow: 10 species from Russia (Kuslitzky, 2007); 10 species from Japan (Momoi, 1978; Watanabe & Maeto 2014); 15 species from China continental (Sheng, 2014); three species from Taiwan (Chiu, 1965). Until now the genus was not known from South Korea. Members of this genus parasitize on lepidopterous larvae and pupae living in different kinds of hideaways after than, they emerge from the pupa as adult. As a result, we newly recorded seven species from South Korea including a new species. The key for identification of the South Korean species of Teleutaea and description of a new species are provided.
