Deltocephalinae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadellidae) is the largest subfamily of Cicadellidae, and caused direct damage on their host plants by feeding and spawning, or as vectors of plant pathogens such as viruses, phytoplasmas, and bacteria. It contains majority of cicadellid vector species of economically important plant disease. Despite of economical pests, Deltocephalinae is difficult to identify due to morphological similarities and variations, yet, their biological information like host plants and taxonomical characters has not been constructed for accurate diagnosis of species. In this study, we build a database of integrated biological information such as host plants, distributional records and dorsal habitus of specimens, male genitalia, and DNA barcoding data with illustrations and photographs.

The family, Machaerotidae (Stål), called tube-making spittlebugs, (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadomorpha) four tribes, 31 genera and 115 species in the world, and is mainly distributed in the Oriental and Palaearctic Regions. In Korea, two species, Makiptyelus dimorphus (Maki, 1914) and Taihorina geisha (Schumacher, 1915) have been recorded. This group have unique morphological characters as follows: Scutellum stretched, spine-like, flat or with sharp carinae and projections, longer than pronotum and forewing distinctly membranous or transparent. Additionally, nymphs make a calcareous tube using some woody dicotyledons and immerses itself in a rather clear fluid excretion inside the tube. In this presentation, the family Machaerotiade is reviewed in Korea. Morphological data, shape of calcareous tube, biological notes, and the key to Korean Machaerotidae species are presented.

Delphacidae is the most diverse group in the Superfamily Fulgoroidea (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Fulgoromorpha) with more than 2000 reported species worldwide. This group is commonly called planthoppers, because most members are grass-feeding species. Some members are known as vectors of economically important plant viruses, and damage to several crops in many countries. Stenocranus is one of the biggest groups in the Delphacidae. In Korea, there have been eight recorded species. In this presentation, we present taxonomic review of the Stenocranus with a new record in Korea. Morphological characters and key to Korean species are presented.

The family Cicadellidae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) is one of the largest insect families, and contains approximately 22,000 described species. All members of this group are phytophagous, therefore, many of them are known as insect pests. Additionally, some species can transfer some pathogens such as viruses and phytoplasmas to plants as a vector. Macropsis (Cicadellidae: Macropsinae) is one of the largest groups in Cicadellidae, and has a world distribution. Among them, M. mendax and M. fuscula are famous for a vector associated with phytoplasma disease in Europe (Elm yellow, Rubus stunt disease). In Korea, three Macropsis species have been recorded to date. In this talk, genus Macropsis is reviewed from Korea. Morphological information such as diagnoses and descriptions of genitalia and the key to Macropsis are presented.

The leafhopper subfamily, Typhlocybinae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadellidae), caused direct damage by sap-sucking or indirect damage by transmission of viruses or diseases to the host plants, so Typhlocybinae is one of the most important insect pests in agriculture, urban ecology, forest, etc. in the world. However, their identifications are very difficult due to small size and morphological similarities, and their exact biological information such as host plants and life cycle are not reported yet for most species. So, we construct an integrated biological database that presents accurate diagnostic methods (illustrated key characters, DNA barcoding data), patterns and seasons of occurrences, and some ecological photographs such as dorsal habitus of specimens and plant damages

The subfamily Iassinae Walker belongs to the family Cicadellidae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha). A total of 124 genera with 1,999 species have been described in the world. To date, two genera, Batracomorphus Lewis and Iassus Fabricius, and 5 species of the subfamily have been recorded in Korea. In this talk, one new species and one new record of the genus Batracomorphus and one new species and two new records of the genus Iassus from Korea are presented. And we also provide biological information such as host plants and distributional records of the Korean Iassine species.

Leafhopper subfamily, Typhlocybinae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadellidae), caused direct damage by sap-sucking or indirect damage by transmission of viruses or diseases on the host plants, so typhlocybinae is one of the important pest groups in the world. Typhlocybinae distribute worldwide and a total of 471 genera and more than 4,300 species have been described. so far, 38 genera and 102 species were recorded in the Korean Peninsula. In this talk, we provide several taxonomic studies for the Korean typhlocybene fauna based on the genus-level reviews of the subfamily from the Korean Peninsula.

Arboridia(두점박이애매미충) 속(노린재목: 매미아목: 매미충과: 매미충아과)의 국내 미기록 2종인 Arboridia lunula Song & Li, 2013 와 Arboridia agrillacea (Anufriev, 1969)을 기록한다. 성충의 사진과 함께 수컷의 생식기와 복부, 날개의 그림과 채집기록을 기재한다. 또한 국내 Arboridia 속의 검색표를 제공한다.

The planthopper subfamily Achilinae (Metcalf, 1938) from Korea is taxonomically revised. Six genera and seven species are recorded among Korean fauna. Among them, one genus, Phenelia Kirkaldy, and two species, Phenelia striatella (Matsumura, 1914) and Deferunda qiana Chen and He (2010) are new to Korea. The male genital structures of all these species are described and illustrated, plus an identification key to the tribe, genus, and species is provided.

The genus Arboridia Zachvatkin belongs to the tribe Erythroneurini of the subfamily Typhlocybinae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadellidae). A total of 69 valid species have been described in the Palaearctic and Oriental region. So far, seven species of this genus have been recorded in the Korean Peninsula. In this study, we present two new species, Arboridia sp. nov. 1, Arboridia sp. nov. 2, and provide a key to the Arboridia species in the Korean Peninsula with biological information such as host plants and distributions.

Lycorma delicatula, once mistakenly reported its occurrence in Korea, is now suddenly common in western Korea, due to its recent arrival from China and their subsequent settlement. A history of name changes in two fulgorid species, Lycorma delicatula and Limois emelianovi is reviewed. We propose to use 꽃매미 instead of its temporary name, 주홍날개꽃매미 for Lycorma delicatula, and, based on the ICZN code 32.5.1, to use Limois emelianovi instead of Limois emeljanovi for 희조꽃매미.

충북지역을 중심으로 이슬애매미충과 이마점애매미충의 발생생태 및 기주식물을 조사한 결과, 이들은 5월 초순부터 포도원에 들어와서 포도 잎을 가해하기 시작하며, 대체로 6월 하순과 8월 중순 경에 높은 밀도를 보였다. 이후 이슬애매미충은 10월 초순부터 월동하기 적당한 수피를 찾아서 인근 숲으로 이동하였고, 이마점애매미충은 9월 하순부터 포도원 주변의 잡초로 이동하였다. 충청북도 5개군의 발생조사에서, 두 종 모두 옥천지역에서 많이 발생하였다. 발육기간은 이마점애매미충이 이슬애매미충보다 짧았다.
