First records of the genera Aclitus and Protaphidius (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Aphidiinae) from South Korea

The aphidiine genera Aclitus Förster, 1863 and Protaphidius Ashmead, 1900 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Aphidiinae) each contain only a few species worldwide. In this study, we report the first records of Aclitus and Protaphidius from Korea, based on specimens of Aclitus sappaphis Takada & S...

description The aphidiine genera Aclitus Förster, 1863 and Protaphidius Ashmead, 1900 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Aphidiinae) each contain only a few species worldwide. In this study, we report the first records of Aclitus and Protaphidius from Korea, based on specimens of Aclitus sappaphis Takada & Shiga, 1974 and Protaphidius nawaii (Ashmead, 1906).We provide detailed morphological characters, diagnostic characters, and photographic documentation for both species. A new host record, Hamamelistes betulinus (de Horváth, 1896), of Aclitus sappaphis is provided. To support species identification and future phylogenetic studies, mitochondrial (COI, COII, ND1, Cytb) and nuclear (28SD2, EF1A1, Wingless) gene sequences for both species are also provided.
