Journal of Species Research 8(1):1-96, 2019 Synoptic list of Symphyta (Hymenoptera) in Korea Jong-Wook Lee*, Jin-Kyung Choi and Bia Park Department of Life Sciences, Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan, 38541, Republic of Korea *Correspondent: [email protected] The suborder Symphyta comprises more than 8,000 described species worldwide, of which about 4,400 extant species are recorded from the Eastern Palaearctic. Symphyta can be easily distinguished from the suborder Apocrita by the abdomen, which is broadly joined to the thorax. The larvae of most species feed on herbaceous to woody. A list of the 418 described species of Symphyta in Korea is presented. The list is in taxonomic sequence by superfamily, family, subfamily and genus and includes 116 genera in 22 subfamilies, 12 families, and seven superfamilies. We provide the page reference of the original description of every species and genus listed, Korean name, host records, and all Korean records. The list also provides the distribution of all the species by country.
