The genus Linaeidea Motschulsky, 1860, contains six species, and is distributed in China, Japan, USSR, Europe, with only two species known in Korea (Gressitt and Kimoto, 1963; Seeno and Wilcox, 1982; Kimoto and Takizawa, 1994; Lee and An, 2001). Morphological notes of the immature stages and life history of Japanese L. aenea (Linne, 1758) were well studied by Kimoto (1962)and Kimoto and Takizawa (1994). Very little is known about the immature stages of this genus from Korea: only the larva of L. aenea have been briefly described and illustrated by Lee (1996). According to Hennig (1938), this genus is separable from the genus Chrysomela, in having sternal tubercles which are disappeared in the last instar larvae. However, the L. adamsi was not applied in the diagnosis character of this genus. The purpose of this results are to provide a key, detailed description, illustration and tubercles patterns of all known Korean species of genus Linaeidea as the basic data for the phylogenetic study the subfamily Chrysomelinae.
