감꼭지나방과는 뒷종아리마디에 위치한 긴 강모 다발을 특징으로 하며, 전 세계적으로 44속 408종 이상이 보고되었다. 이 중 가장 다양한 종 수를 포함하는 속은 Stathmopoda Herrich-Schäffer, 1853로, 유충 시기에 다양한 먹이원을 가진 240종 이상의 종들로 구성되어 있다. 그러나 성충 의 크기가 작고 종들끼리 형태적으로 유사하여 분류학적 연구가 제한적이었다. 본 연구에서는 미기록 2종, Stathmopoda atridorsalis Terada와 S. dorsioculella Terada를 한반도에서 최초로 보고한다. 각 종에 대한 진단, 기재, 성충과 생식기의 사진을 제공한다. 추가적으로, 이번 연구를 통해 보 고되는 종들을 포함한 한반도산 Stathmopoda 속 종의 앞날개에 기반한 검색표를 함께 제공한다.
본 연구는 국내 완도군 최남단에 위치한 여서도에 대한 나비목 생물상 조사를 통하여, 여서도의 생물학적 그리고 보존적 가치에 대해 알리고 자 한다. 본 연구로부터 나비목 총 154종 27과에 대한 체크리스트가 구축되었고, 먹점뿔나방과에 속하는 미기록 1종을 새롭게 기록하였다. 북두칠 성먹점뿔나방(신칭)의 성충 형태, 생식기 구조 및 생태에 대한 정보를 함께 제공하였다.
We report Ptycholaimellus ocellatus Huang and Wang, 2011, a free-living marine nematode of the family Chromadoridae Filipjev, 1917, as a newly recorded species in Korea. The specimen was collected from intertidal sediment habitats along the southern coast of Korea. Ptycholaimellus ocellatus is characterized by a distinct set of morphological features, including an abruptly tapered cervical region, the presence of ocelli, a transversely striated cuticle with lateral differentiation marked by two prominent longitudinal rows of dots, a large ampulla within a voluminous ventral gland, and two pharyngeal bulbs. This study provides the first taxonomic report of the genus Ptycholaimellus in Korean waters with differential interference contrast (DIC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs.
Hitherto, 37 species in 10 genera under 4 subfamilies have been known from the Korean Peninsula. In this study, three newly recorded species are reported for the first time from Korea: Conops ceriaeformis ussuriensis Zimina, 1974, Physocephala pielina Chen, 1939, and Myopa picta Panzer, 1797. Morphological diagnoses and illustrations of these species are presented. Additionally, a key to all species of Conopidae from Korea is also provided.
The genus Argyresthia Hübner, [1825] of the family Argyresthiidae is known to comprise over 150 species worldwide. Among them, more than 70 species are recognized in the Palearctic region. The Korean fauna of the genus Argyresthia includes 11 described species to date. In this study, we report three species of the genus Argyresthia for the first time in Korea: A. brockeella (Hübner, [1813]), A. longalbella Liu, Wang & Li, 2017, and A. mala Liu, Wang & Li, 2017. All available information, images of adults and genitalia for species are provided.
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 genus Paragabara is recognized as a member of the subfamily Boletobiinae, with six species in the Eastern Palaearctic. In Korea, three species of this genus are known. Konoenko et al. (2010) designated a lectotype for P. flavomacula (Oberthür, 1880) and described a new species, P. curvicornuta. In this study, the misidentification of the Korean P. flavomacula as P. curvicornuta has been corrected. Additionally, one newly recorded species, P. curvicornuta, is reported from Korea. In total, four Paragabara species are recognized in Korea. All available information, images of adults, a checklist, and male and female genitalia, etc., are provided.
Henricia specimens were collected using a dual approach of trimix scuba diving and fishing nets. This inclusive collection encompasses the discovery of two species highlighted in this study and introduces and provides comprehensive descriptions for Henricia kinkasana and Henricia longispina aleutica. The descriptions offered in this study were derived from the thorough examinations of external morphological characteristics. The documentation provides detailed insight into key traits related to the abactinal and actinal skeletons and spines of these newly recorded species in Korea. This comprehensive examination contributes to our understanding of the distinct morphological characteristics defining each species within the genus Henricia.
