The pbjective of this study to clarify the varietal resistance to green leaf-and planthopper and the evaluate the nature of the resistance to the insects in connection with the Antibiosis. this study was investigated the reaction of the varieties to insects with 46 rice varieties including recommended varieties of korea, At seedling stage they were in fested with second of third inster nymphs. the results were as follows. 1. Most of the rice vari eties tested showed highly susceptible reaction to Brown planthopper except Mudgo, KR 108-143- and HR529-41-3-2 as resistance, and Akamoch, Satominori, IR 24 and IR 8 asmoderately suscptible. 2. In the test of varietal resistance to white backed planthopper Mudgo, KR 108-243-1, KR 109-154-2 and HR 529-45-3-2 were resistance, and Suweon 82, Tongil, IR 8 palkeum, Iri 309, Hokwang and Chuhoku #31 were Moderatly susceptible. 3. Most of the varieties tested were observed highly resistance to green leafhopper, but Tongil, Suweon 82, IR 24, Milsung and Chuhoku #31 were Moderatly susceptible. 4. the new bred lines HR 108-243-1 are multiple resistance of Brown planthopper, green leafhopper and white babked planthopper, and some others showed moderatly susceptible as. IR 8: Brown planthopper, white backed planthopper. IR 24: Brown poanthopper, green leafhopper. Tongil: suweon #82, Chukoku #31, whist backed planthopper, Green leafhopper.

The gustatory sense organs in the mouthparts of th adult Green Leafhopper (Cicadella viridis L.) were observed by scanning electron microscope. The gustatory sensilla were composed of ten D-sensilla on the precibarim, eight P-sensilla on the wall of both side of eipharyngeal basin, and two H-sensilla in the food canal of the hypopharynx. D- and P-sensilla were again subdivided into 2 subtypes as two types by their morphology. Beneath the cuticle of epipharynx, two paris of nerve bundles were seen originating from D- and P-sensilla, respectively. And a pair of nerve bundles from H-sensilla, beneath the cuticle of hypoharynx, was observed.

Laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the resistance of the new rice varieties Milyang $\#$21 and $\#$23 at the seedling stage to the brown planthopper(Nilaparvata lugens), small brown planthopper(Laodelphax striatellus), white-back planthopper(Sogatella furcifera), green rorice leafhopper(Nephotettix cincticeps) and zigzag-striped leafhopper (Recilia dorsalis) The varieties Yushin and T(N)-1 were used as susceptible check and the resistant check varieties were Mudgo to brown planthopper, ASD-7 :o small brown planthopper, Colombo to white-back planthopper, IR2061 (46763) to green rice leafhopper and Vellailanalgayan to zigzag-striped leafhopper. The varieties Milyang $\#$21 and $\#$23 were moderate in plant reaction only to the green rice leafhopper and $\#$23 was moderately resistant in plant rection only to the small brown planthopper. The nymphs of plant-and leaf-hoppers were more prefered Milyang $\#$21 and $\#$23 and susceptible check-varieties were more preferred for feeding than the resistant check-varieties. The green rice leafhopper and aigzag·striped leafhopper much more prefered Milyang $\#$21 and $\#$23 for oviposition, while brown planthopper and small brown planthopper more prefered the resistant cheeks than test varieties and susceptible checks. However, there was no any steady relationship in ovipositional preference between resistant and susceptible to the hoppers. Shorter nymphal-periods and higher rate of adult emergence were observed in the test varieties and the susceptible checks compared with the resistant checks. In conclusion, the varieties Milyang $\#$21 and $\#$23 seemed to be lack of true resistance to the plant-and leaf-hoppers from the viewpoints of antibiosis and feeding preference.

The trichogrammatidae ego parasite of the green rice leafhopper (GRLH), paracentrobia andoi, were investigated to know their parasitic activities after overwintering in the paddy banks and fallow fields, their seasonal variation and per cent parasitism in the paddy fields of Gyeongnam provincial O.R.D. at Jinju from 1982 to 1984. The parasitic activities of Paracentrobia andoi after overwintering in the Paddy banks in early Masch were high and tended to decrease remarkably since early April by moving to the fallow fields. The parasitic rate of paracentrobia andoi on GRLH was $21\%$ between late April and early May. the peak of egg laying period of GRLH. The per cent parasitism of the wasps in fallow fields was an average of $0\%$ in Gyeochang and Namji and $9.6-29.2\%$ in Namhae, Kimhae and Jinju. The parasitic activites of Paracentrobia andoi had three peakrs in paddy field, however, the highest peak was ovserved between mid- August and early October. The per cent egg parasitism of Paracentrobia andoi was an average of $16.5\%$ on second generation of Nepotettix cinctireps and $36.7\%$ on third generation of the leafhopper.

This study was carried out to investigate the distribution of egg parasitoids from green rice leafhopper, Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler, from the middle of August through the early September in southern rice cultural areas. The results were obtained as follow. 1. Four species of egg parasitoids, Gonatocerus sp. A and B, Paracentrobia andoi and Anagrus sp. are newly recorded from the eggs of green rice leafhopper. 2. Egg parasitism rates of Gonatocerus sp. were varied from $41.0\~73.9\%$ on an egg mass basis and from $29.7\~49.0\%$ on basis of egg. Percent parasitism rates by Paracentrobia andoi were $0\~9.7\%$ on an egg mass basis and from $2.1\~12.6\%$ on basis of egg. Gonatocerus sp. was dominant egg parasitoid in the parasitism rate than Paracentrobia andoi.

Experiment was conducted to study resistance of rice varieties and lines originated from Korea and IRRI sources to the zigzag-striped leafhopper, Recilia (Inazuma) dorsalis MOTSCHULSKY The nature of varietal resistance to the insect was evaluated from the viewpoints of feeding and ovipositional preferences and antibiosis. The varieties Su-Yai-20, Muthumanikam, PTB-18 and Vellanlangalayan were resistant and DV-139 moderately resistant to tile zigzag-striped leafhopper, and the other varieties tested were susceptible. Feeding and ovipositional preferences were significantly different among the varieties, but no correlation was observed between the two preferences. The nature of resistance of rice to the insect seemed to be related with The non-feeding preference, not non-ovipositional preference. The resistant (Vellanlangalyan and Su-Yai 20) and moderately resistant(DV-139) varieties had high antibiosis against the zigzag-striped leafhopper.

A leafhopper, Zorka sp. was collected from a persimmon (Diospyrosi kaki, cv SangjuDungsi) orchard in Sangju, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea on 15 June, 2008. This leafhopper gave a serious damage to persimmon leaves, being a new pest to persimmon. This leafhopper was tentatively identified as Zorka sp., which has not been recorded in the science. White spots of <1mm-circle occurred around the vein of damaged leaves. Most part of leaf was turned to white when heavy infection occurred. The first symptom occurred from 4 days after introduction of Zorka sp. (4 adults/persimmon leaf). We investigated the occurrence of Zorka sp. in the persimmon orchards in Korea from 2008 to 2009. Total 143 orchards from 11 cities in 6 provinces were observed from July to August. The damage caused by Zorka sp. was found in 22 orchards (15.4%) of the investigated. According to locality, 40.7% of orchards were damaged in Yeongdong, Chungcheongbuk-do and 33.3% in Wanju, Jeollabuk-do. However, no damage was observed from the orchards in Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeju-do, south part of Korea. Especially, 9 of 11 orchards in Youngdong were located close to grapevine yards.

The leafhopper genus Batracomorphus Lewis, 1834 belongs to the tribe Batracomorphini (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadellidae: Iassinae). B. irroratus Lewis, 1834 was designated as its type species. The genus includes most diverse species in the subfamily Iassinae and contains approximately 350 described species from the world. In Korea, four Batracomorphus species, B. allioni (Turton, 1802), B. punctilliger Anufriev, 1981, B. stigmaticus (Matsumura, 1912), B. viridulus (Melichar, 1902), have been reported in the Korean peninsula. The members of this genus have a similar body size and similar general appearances; thus, it is very difficult to identify clearly without examining the male's genital structures. In this study, Batracomorphus furcatus Li and Wang, 2003 is newly reported from Korea for the first time. This species is previously known to be from China. Herein, the morphological information of B. furcatus Li and Wang is provided with a re-description, photographs of the male dorsal habitus, illustrations of the genitalia structure and distributional records. In addition, a key to the Korean five species of Batracomorphus is presented.

Sixteen kinds of piercing-sucking mouth type insects were observed at witches'-broom diseased paulownia (Paulownia tomentosa) trees. Among ten insect species tested, a leafhopper, Empoasca sp., transmitted paulownia witches'-broom mycoplasma-like organism(PWB-MLO) to periwinkle(Catharanthus roseus) plant. Adults of this leafhopper were collected from PWB-diseased paulownia trees. The leafhpoppers were allowed to feed on the PWB-infected paulownia trees for three weeks to acquire PWB-MLO. These insects were then transferred to healthy seedlings of paulownia and periwinkle plants for inoculation-feeding. About 30-40days after the inoculation, "little-leaf" symptoms developed on periwinkle plants, but no symptoms developed on paulownia seedlings. MLO infection in the diseased periwinkle tissue was diagnosed by fluorescence microscopy. MLOs were observed in the sieve tubes by electron microscopy, proving the insect transmission of PWB-MLO.
