Abstract

In this study, three species of the subfamily Olethreutinae; Matsumuraeses ussuriensis (Caradja, 1916), Pseudacroclita luteispecula (Kuznetsov, 1979) and Zeiraphera hiroshii Kawabe, 1980 are reported for the first time from Korea. All species descriptions in this study are based on data obtained through the collection and rearing of larvae. This research is expected to make a significant contribution to the understanding of the ecological characteristics of this family. Descriptions, biological information, host plants, high-resolution photographs of larvae, adults, and genitalia are provided for each species. Additionally, host plants for some species were reported for the first time in this study.
