Abstract

A taxonomic and floristic account for Korean Elachista is provided. All previously reported taxa from Korea are reappraised. Elachista in Korea consists of five species: E. falcata Lee sp. nov., E. nipponica Umezaki, E. okamurae Yoshida, E. orbicularis (Ohta) Skiner, and E. tenuis Yamada. Elachista fucicola (Vell.) Aresch. 1. typica Rosenvinge sensu Kang (1966) that was previously recorded in Korean flora was assigned to another taxon, E. okamurae Yoshida. Elachista taeniaeformis Yamada is transferred to the new genus, Proselachista Lee et Garbary. Elachista falcata is characterized by having a pseudoparenchymatous medulla, assimilatory filaments with equal diameter over their entire length and small projections on the lower portion, falcate paraphyses, and gourd-shaped unilocular sporangia.
