  • A taxonomic review of the Korean Lycocerus (Cantharidae, Coleoptera) was presented. Through this study, total of four species were found from Korea including a species new to Korea, Lycocerus striatus. We newly provided a key to the Korean Lycocerus species and the distributional map on each species in this study.

  • The genus Rhogadopsis Brethes, 1913 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Opiinae), which mostly parasitizes mining flies (Diptera: Agromyzidae), has been considered to subgenus in the genus Opius Wesmael, 1835. However, according to having the derived wing venation and forming a monophyletic clade, the genus Rhogadopsis is elevated to generic rank. As results of faunal survey in Yeoseo-do, Jeonnam, South Korea, the male specimen of Rhogadosis obliqua were collected by sweeping. Diagnosis, description, distribution and diagnostic illustration of Rhogadopsis obliqua are provided.

Two New Records of Braconid Wasps, Genus Phaedrotoma (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Opiinae), from South Korea (한국산 미기록 고치벌 Phaedrotoma (벌목: 고치벌과: 꽃파리고치벌아과)속 2종에 대한 보고)

  • The genus Phaedrotoma Foerster, 1862 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Opiinae) parasitize in larvae of flies, Tephritidae, Agromyzidae, Ephydridae, Anthomyiidae, Scathophagidae, and Drosophilidae, of which 12 species are recorded in South Korea. As results of our survey, Phaedrotoma rugulifera Li et al. (2013) and Phaedrotoma vermiculifera Li et al. (2013) are reported for the first time in South Korea. Those specimens were collected by sweeping. Descriptions, and diagnostic illustrations of P. rugulifera and P. vermiculifera are provided.

  • The traditional animal phylogenetic tree is to align the body structure of the animal phylums from simple to complex based on the initial development character. Currently, molecular systematics research based on the molecular, it is on the fly, is again estimating prior trend and show the new genealogy and interest of the evolution. In this paper, we generate the training set which is obtained from a DNA sequence ans apply to the classification. We made use of the mitochondrial DNA for the experiment, and then proved the accuracy using the MEGA program which is anaysis program, it is used in the biology field. Although the result of the mining has to proved through biological experiment, it can provede the methodology for the efficient classify and can reduce the time and effort to the experiment.

  • The genus Areotetes van Achterberg & Li, 2013 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Opiinae), which is endoparasitoid of mining or infesting of fruit dipterous larvae, have been reported for the first time in China. Currently, four species of the genus Areotetes have been known from the province Hunan and Fujian, China. In this study the genus Areotetes with Areotetes carinuliferus van Achterberg & Li, 2013 is reported for the first time from Korea. Material studied in the present study were collected by sweeping in Mt Gongchi, Eochungdo, Province Jeonbuk, Korea. Herein, diagnosis of genus, description, distribution, and diagnostic illustration of A. carinuliferus are provided. In addition, DNA barcode data of the partial gene of mitochondrial cytochorome c oxidase subunit I (COI) are included.

  • The family Orussidae is a unique parasitoid group belonging to the suborder Symphyta. Members of Orussidae are rare and only a species, Orussus coreanus Takeuchi have been previously recorded from Korea. In this study, we report another species, Stirocorsia tosensis (Tosawa and Sugihara, 1934), for the first time from Korea. The adult characteristics of the species with illustrations and a species key to the Korean Orussidae are provided.
