The family Glyphipterigidae comprises more than 500 described species worldwide. In Korea, only 11 species of 4 genera under 2 subfamilies recorded. In this study, a total of 16 species were discovered, including 5 new recorded species. The new recorded species discovered are as follows; Glyphipterix euleucotoma Diakonoff & Arita, 1976, G. gamma Moriuti & Saito, 1964, G. gemmula Diakonoff, 1976, G. mikadonis Arita & Owada, 2006 and G. semiflavana Issiki, 1930. All available information, adults and genital images structures are provided.
Yponomeutoidea are one of the largest superfamily of microlepidoptera, comprising over 1,800 species worldwide. The composition of the superfamily was clarified by Kyrki (1984), who suggested that the monophyly of the group (based on Yponomeuta) was supported by presence of pleural robes on abdominal segment of A8 of the male.
First record of Yponomeutoidea from Korea has performed by K.T. Park in 1983, and then more than 50 species have been recorded up to date.
In the present study, we reviewed of the species of Yponomeutoidea from Korea, with Ypsolopha sp.
