Description
Summary:In Korea, seven species belonging to five genera of the family Bostrichidae have been recorded to date. To these seven species, we are adding four other species, namely, Psoa rubripennis sp. nov., Dinoderus speculifer Lesne, 1895, Heterobostrychus hamatipennis (Lesne, 1895), and Xylothrips pekinensis (Lesne, 1902: comb. nov.) to the Korean fauna. In addition, the genus Calophagus Lesne, 1902, is synonymized with the genus Xylothrips Lesne, 1901 (syn. nov.) and Xylothrips cathaicus Reichardt, 1966, is synonymized with X. pekinensis (Lesne, 1902: syn. nov.). We herein present the key to the identification of species of the Korean Bostrichidae family and three similar Xylothrips species in Asia using their photographs.
