Mantidflies or Mantid lacewing (Mantispidae) is a morphologically interesting group of Neuroptera. This group is a general predator of arthropods and is equipped with raptorial forelegs similar to praying mantis. In Korea, only three species, Climaciella quadrituberculata, Mantispa harmandi, and Mantispilla japonica, are recorded until now. Here we report Genus Necyla and Necyla formosana, new records in Korea. We provide diagnostic character and photos of adult and genitalia.

The Genus Psectra is a small group of Hemerobiidae, and Psectra diptera is one of the rare and attractive species in this group because of hindwing variation. They are well known to have their hindwing reduced, similar to flies, depending on their habitat environment. We report Genus Psectra and Psectra diptera, new records from Korea. We provide brief descriptions and photos of adults and genitalia.

This study reports the first records of four coleophorids, namely Coleophora kamchatica (Anikin, 1999), C. lativittella Erschoff, 1877, C. levantis Baldizzone & Oku, 1988, and C. citrarga Meyrick, 1934, in Korea. Additionally, the presence of two species, C. montaniella Oku & Kusunoki, 2018, and C. artemisicolella Bruand, 1855, in Korea has been overlooked in the previous checklist of the family Coleophoridae in Korea, despite there being evidence of their existence. Consequently, with these additions, the total number of known species in Korea has been confirmed to be 42, expanding from the previously identified 36 species. Diagnostic characteristics and photographs of adults and genitalia for the four newly recorded species are provided, along with evidence supporting the presence of the two overlooked species in Korea.

The family Erebidae (Lepidoptera: Noctuoidea) is known as one of the largest families in Lepidoptera, comprising about 1,760 genera and more than 24,569 described species worldwide. Within this family, the genus Plecoptera Guenée, 1852, belonging to the subfamily Anobinae, has been documented across the Palaearctic, Oriental, and Afrotropical regions. Here, we introduce the subfamily and genus for the first time in Korea, along with a new species. The diagnosis, description and photographs of adult and genitalia are provided here.

The family Pyralidae comprises over 6,000 species, and is composed of five subfamilies. Among those, the subfamily Phycitinae includes 3 genera, Addyme Walker, 1863, Calguia Walker, 1863, and Coleothrix Ragonot, 1888, with more than 3,300 species worldwide. However, several species of the genera have been erroneously stated and identified due to confusions caused by high morphological similarities. Therefore, we correct those errors through re-examinations of most of the type specimens, along with a diagnosis and table exhibiting the history of those genera. Additionally, we introduce two misidentified Korean pyralids belonging to the genus Addyme.

The family Gelechiidae (Lepidoptera: Gelechioidea) is known as one of the largest families in Microlepidoptera, encompassing about 600 genera and more than 5,000 described species worldwide. However, the genus Altenia Sattler, 1960 has been poorly studied in Korea, with only one known species. Here we introduce a new species, Altenia parascriptella sp. nov., from Korea, providing photos of adults and genitalia for both sexes, along with diagnostic characteristics.

In the genus Acrobasis Zeller, 1839, there are 14 species known in Korea. In this study, we present Acrobasis rubrizonella (Ragonot, 1893) and Acrobasis subceltifoliella Yamanaka, 2006 from Korea for the first time. We hear provide diagnoses, descriptions, and images of the adults and genitalia of the two species.

Chrysaster Kumata, 1961는 Gracillariidae (나비목: 가는나방상과)의 Lithocolletinae에 속해 있으며 우리나라에는 Chrysaster hagicola Kumata, 1961 한 종만이 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 동속의 국내 미기록종인 Chrtsaster ostensackenella (Fitch, 1859)를 처음으로 소개한다. 본 종의 유충과 성충은 Robinia pseudoacacia L. (콩목: 콩과)에서 채집되었다. 종 동정을 위한 특징과 간략한 기재를 제시하고, 성충과 수컷 및 암컷 생식기의 사진을 제공하였다. 최근 중국에서 양봉업에 매우 중요한 아까시나무의 심각한 해충으로 보고된 바 있어 본 종에 대해 조속한 추가 연구가 필요한 상황이다.

The genus Adrapsa Walker, 1859 belongs to Herminiinae of Erebidae in Lepidoptera. In Korea, only one species, Adrapsa simplex (Butler, 1879) has been recorded so far. Here we add another species, Adrapsa simplex (Butler, 1879) as a new record to the Korean fauna. A short description for the species is given with adult images of male and female and their genitalia, and its COI barcode sequence is also provided.
