Abstract
ABSTRACT This study is aimed to review the genus Spulerina Vári, (1961) of the family Gracillariidae from Korea, in which seven species are known. Among them, one species, Spulerina coreana sp. nov., is described as new to science. Also, two species, S. parthenocissi Kumata & Kuroko, 1988, and S. virgulata Kumata & Kuroko, 1988, are reported for the first time from Korea. All available information for the species including their bibliographies, known host plants, and distributional data are provided. Adults and genitalia of all presented species are briefly redescribed and illustrated.
期刊介绍:
Oriental Insects is an international, peer-reviewed journal devoted to the publication of original research articles and reviews on the taxonomy, ecology, biodiversity and evolution of insects and other land arthropods of the Old World and Australia. Manuscripts referring to Africa, Australia and Oceania are highly welcomed. Research papers covering the study of behaviour, conservation, forensic and medical entomology, urban entomology and pest control are encouraged, provided that the research has relevance to Old World or Australian entomofauna. Precedence will be given to more general manuscripts (e.g. revisions of higher taxa, papers with combined methodologies or referring to larger geographic units). Descriptive manuscripts should refer to more than a single species and contain more general results or discussion (e.g. determination keys, biological or ecological data etc.). Laboratory works without zoogeographic or taxonomic reference to the scope of the journal will not be accepted.
