The family Pteromalidae are one of the numerous and economically important groups of parasitoids, but our knowledge of this group in South Korea is limited. Up to date, only 39 species of 27 genera belonging to five subfamilies have been recorded from south Korea. This study is based on the material from the Applied Entomology Division, Department of Agricultural Biology, National Academy of Agricultural Science (NAAS) and Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan, South Korea (YNU). As a result of this study, four species (Diglochis sylvicola (Walker), Lariophagus obtusus Kamijo, Mokrzeckia lazoensis Tselikh, Paracarotomus cephalotes Ashmead,) in Pteromalinae are recorded for the first time in South Korea. Among them two genera (Diglochis Förster, Paracarotomus Ashmead,) recorded for the first time in South Korea. Therefore, 43 species of 29 genera in Pteromalidae are recorded from South Korea.
Fivenewly recorded subfamilies, Diacritinae, Microleptinae, Orthocentrinae, Orthopelmatinae, and Phrudinae, were the small and rare subfamilies of the family Ichneumonidae except Orthocentrinae. The first subfamily Orthocentrinae have been reported 31 genera with 481 species worldwide but we have a very poor knowledge of this subfamily in Korea. This subfamily is known for larval koinobiont endoparasitoids of Diptera (Humala, 2008). The second subfamily Diacritinae have been reported six species in the world and distributed four species in the Eastern Palaearctic (Yu et al., 2012). The third subfamily Microleptinae have been recorded only one genus with 13 species in the world. Among them 10 species are distributed in the Eastern Palaearctic. The fourth subfamily Orthopelmatinae have been reported nine species of one genus in the world, five species in the Eastern Palaearctic. The final subfamily Phrudinae have been reported 29 species in the world, five species in the Eastern Palaearctic. The subfamily Eucerotinae have been recorded 50 species in the world and four species from Korea. This subfamily is known for hyperparasitoids of Ichneumonoidea (Wahl & Sharkey, 1993).
In this paper we report not only five newly recorded subfamilies new to Korean fauna but also eight newly recorded species included two species of Eucerotinae for the first time from Korea.
The phylogenetic relationships among the Nymphalidae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) have been controversial in several perspective. The present study sequenced a total of ~ 3,500 bp from cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA), and elongation factor-1 alpha (EF-1α) in 80 nymphalid species belonging to seven subfamilies (Linmenitidinae, Heliconiinae, Nymphalinae, Apaturinae, Libytheinae, Satyrinae, and Danainae), along with those of six lycaenid species as outgroups. Phylogenetic analyses via Bayesian Inference (BI) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) algorithms concordantly supported the subfamilial relationships of (((((Linmenitidinae + Heliconiinae) + (Nymphalinae + Apaturinae)) + Libytheinae) + Satyrinae) + Danainae), with high nodal support for monophyletic subfamilies and tribes. This result is largely consistent with a previous study performed with a substantially large sequence information and morphological characters, except for the position of Libytheinae that has previously been placed as the sister to all reminder of Nymphalidae.
A total of 12 species in six genera of the poneromorph subfamilies group in Korea was reviewed. All investigated specimens are classified into three subfamilies, Amblyoponinae, Proceratinae and Ponerinae. Totally six genera were known and Cryptopone, Hypoponera, Pachycondyla and Ponera belong to the subfamily Ponerinae and Amblyopone and Proceratium belongs to the subfamily Amblyoponinae and Proceratinae respectively. In this study, keys to the all known genera and species of the subfamilies in Korea are presented. A synonymic list, description of a worker and comments on each species are given with SEM photographs of worker.
A pictorial key it presented for the identification of adult mosquitoes of 2 sub families of Culicidae, 2 genera of Anophelinae, 38 genera of Culicinae, 22 subgenera of Aedes and 20 subgenera of Ochlerotatus. Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) demonstrate the taxonomic characters used in the key.
