ABSTRACT

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. Keywords: Lycocerus, key to species, Lycocerus striatus, new record, diagnostic characters, taxonomy, Korea

Therefore, the goals of this study are to report the unrecorded species from Korea The genus Lycocerus Gorham, 1889 is defined as following and to provide a new key to the Korean Lycocerus species. characteristics: pronotum subquadrate or subtrapezoidal; For this study, we examined a total of 256 specimens male genitalia egg-shaped with a pair of dorsal plates sepa- (Lycocerus nigrimembris, 82 examples; L. striatus, 8 exam- rated from each other by a deep cleft; female genitalia with ples; L. jejuensis, 15 examples; L. vitellinus, 151 examples). slender and spiral diverticulum and spermatheca (Okushima, All specimens were deposited in the insect collection of 2005). Members of the genus were known as more than 300 National Institute of Biological Resources. The collection species in the world (Kazantsev and Brancucci, 2007), and data of specimens were used for the distribution maps of 43 species in Japan (Okushima, 2005).
