개미사돈아과는 현재 국내에 27속 52종이 기록되어 있으나 이들은 대부분 1990년도 일본학자에 의해 단편적으로 연구된 것들이다. 국내에는 아직 이들에 대한 포괄적인 분류학적 연구가 진행된 적 없으며 분류전문가 또한 양성된 적이 없다. 가까운 일본의 경우 270종 이상이 분포하는 것으로 보아 한반도에 많은 미기록과 신종이 존재할 것으로 예측되어 진다. 현재 충북대학교 계통분류학 연구실은 대량 퍼널 시스템을 기반으로 다양한 토양무척추동물을 채집·연구 중이며 그 중에서 개미사돈아과에 초첨을 맞추어 연구를 진행중이다. 이번 발표를 통해 한국산 개미사돈아과 의 분류연구를 위해 어떠한 방법으로 표본을 확보 중이고 어떠한 연구들이 진행되어지고 있는지 논의한다.

A taxonomic study of Korean Notothecta Thomson is presented. Two species are recognized [N. effecta (Sawada) and N. watanabei (Sawada)] and a new synonym, Atheta (Atheta) taesongsanensis Paśnik = N. watanabei (Sawada), is proposed. Notothecta effecta is reported for the first time in the Korean peninsula. A key and illustrations of diagnostic characters are provided.

The supertribe Faronitae consists of 29 genera worldwide, and 13 genera in Australia and New Zealand. During examine 36 specimens from the private collection of Donald S. Chandler (Durham, New Hampshire, USA) and the Field Museum of Natural History (Chicago, Illinois, USA), we recognized three species. They does not share diagnostic characters with any known faronite genus. Here we describe new genus and three new species from Western Australia. Members of this new genus can be distinguished by the following combination characters: rostrum with distinct shallow and narrow frontal sulcus, apically sharp and narrow median lobe of male genitalia, and twice longer abdominal segment VI than V.

The Australian genus Logasa Chandler was described in 2001 based on Logasa novaeangila Chandler 2001. Other two species, Logasa tricolor (Oke 1928) and Logasa ventralis (Oke 1928) were originally described as the genus Sagola, and transferred to Logasa by Chandler. During revisionary study using 140 museum specimens, additional three new species was recognized. After type examination of L. tricolor and L. ventralis, we found that they have different diagnostic characters for generic level such as foveal system and male genitalia. However, their diagnostic characters are not included any known faronite genus. Australian faronite fauna has numerous undescribed species. They will revise with other undescribed species for a following study.

The genus Etainia Beirne is one of the small group in the family Nepticulidae (Lepidoptera: Nepticuloidea) and is comprising 16 described species in the world. Among them, just four species have been known from the East Palearctic region. As results of taxonomic studies on Korean nepticulids, two species of Etania, E. peterseni Puplesis and E. trifasciata (Matsumura), are newly recognized from Korea. Description and illustrations of diagnostic characteristics including male genitalia for each species are provided with information of host plants.

The genus Placosternum Amyot & Serville (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) currently belongs to the tribe Pentatomini Leach with 13 described species. Species are medium to big size and are defined by having characteristic thoracic sternal structures and the pronotal lateral angles somewhat protruded and/or serrate. The genus follows a typical Indo-Malayan distribution limited by the Wallace line south-eastwards and extending to some regions of the eastern Palaearctic. The species in the genus can be considered somehow cryptic as morphologically they are similar and most of them have been classified as a single species. Additionally, as most of the species descriptions are extremely poor, after the revision of the type materials and material deposited in many of the worldwide institutions, we present the systematic knowledge on the genus.

어리방아벌레과에 속하는 Hylis Gozis, 1886 속의 Hylis harmandi (Fleutiaux, 1923)가 한국에서 처음 확인되었다. 이 종에 대한 재기재와 중요한 형질 사진이 제시되었다.

Mites in the family Ascidae are predacious soil dwellers with potential of biological control of soil insect pests. The family Ascidae is comprised of 10 genera with 12 species recorded in Korea. During the soil acarine biodiversity study in Muljangori, Hallasan Mt in Jeju, Asca bicornis Canestrini & Fanzago, 1887 was discovered from moss habitat and are reporting this as a new record to Korean Mesostigmata fauna. We provide the illustration and description. This species has morphological characteristics of all dorsal setae nude and needle shaped, lateral caudal projection of PoZ4 shape which are different from the con-general species of A. aphidioides.

The genus Microrhagus Dejean, 1833 is reviewed with four species from Korea: Microrhagus foveolatus (Fleutiaux, 1923), Microrhagus jejuensis sp. nov., Microrhagus mystagogus (Fleutiaux, 1923), and Microrhagus ramosus Fleutiaux, 1902. Herein, we provide a key to species of Korean Microrhagus, with diagnoses and photographs for each species.

한국산 자루맵시벌속(Genus Netelia Gray)의 12개 아속 중 하나 인, 애자루맵시벌아속의 분류학적 연구를 수행하였으며, 그 결과로 1미기록 종[Netelia (Parabates) nigricarpus (Thomson, 1888) (검은점애자루맵시벌: 신칭)]을 국내에 처음 보고한다. 애자루맵시벌아속의 3종에 대한 식별 형질과 외형 사진을 제공한다.

최근 보령 지역의 후기 트라이아스기 아미산층에서 다량의 화석 강도래 유충이 발견되었다. 이들의 유충은 그 형태적 특징에 의해 Platyperlidae과, Baleyopterygidae과, Siberioperlidae과 등으로 분류되었다. 이 중 양적으로 가장 많 이 발견되는 종류는 Baleyopterygidae과의 화석 강도래이다. 이러한 사실은 강도래가 러시아, 몽골 및 중국을 비롯한 동 북아시아 지역까지 이미 중생대부터 넓게 분포했음을 의미한다. 현생 강도래는 대부분 유수성이며 맑은 물에 서식하기 때문에 화석 강도래가 발견되는 보령 지역도 유사한 환경이었을 것으로 추정된다. 또한 강도래와 함께 발견되는 화석들 로 미루어 볼 때 당시의 강도래는 하루살이나 패갑류 등을 먹고 살았던 것으로 추정된다.

The genus of Gustavia Kramer, 1879 comprises 16 species are collectively distributed in the worldwide. Only one species, Gustavia microcephala Nicolet, 1855 has been recorded in Korea. We found a new species, Gustavia aominensis Fujikawa, 2008 to Korean inventory from the litter and soil samples of Sasa borealis at Cheong-ok mountain natural recreation forest. A diagnostic description of this species with detailed illustration and data on its geographical distribution are presented.

The family Pteromalidae are one of the numerous and economically important groups of parasitoids, but our knowledge of this group in South Korea is limited. Up to date, only 39 species of 27 genera belonging to five subfamilies have been recorded from south Korea. This study is based on the material from the Applied Entomology Division, Department of Agricultural Biology, National Academy of Agricultural Science (NAAS) and Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan, South Korea (YNU). As a result of this study, four species (Diglochis sylvicola (Walker), Lariophagus obtusus Kamijo, Mokrzeckia lazoensis Tselikh, Paracarotomus cephalotes Ashmead,) in Pteromalinae are recorded for the first time in South Korea. Among them two genera (Diglochis Förster, Paracarotomus Ashmead,) recorded for the first time in South Korea. Therefore, 43 species of 29 genera in Pteromalidae are recorded from South Korea.

The Banchinae are a large cosmopolitan subfamily that includes approximately 1,700 species in 65 genera. The number of species in South Korea is still pooly known and only 18 of the 275 Eastern Palaearctic species have been reported. Most species are koinobiont endoparasitoids of Lepidopteran larvae and pupae. A few banchines also parasitize Coleoptera and Hymenoptera. This subfamily is divided into three tribes; Atrophini, Banchini and Glyptini. The former is the largest tribe with 953 species in 40 genera, and is easily distinguished from two other tribes by the tergites without oblique grooves and the nevellus which is intercepted at middle. Cryptopimpla is moderately large genus with worldwide distribution. As a member of tribe Atrophini, Cryptopimpla can be distinguished by follow: Occipital carina connected with hypostomal carina; epomia absent; lower half of mesopleuron weakly convex; ovipositor sheath 0.5-1.0 times as long as hind tibia; ovipositor tip with subapical dorsal notch. Until now the genus was not found in Korean fauna. Here we report four species, two of them are described as new to science. The description is given also for newly reported male of Cryptopimpla brevigena Kuslitzkii and C. carinifacialis Sheng. A key for South Korean species is proposed.
