covered with different types of hairs including very long ones thickened at their distal ends.Maxil­larly palpi two-jointed clothed with whitish scales, darker hairs and setae of varying configuration. Labial palpi three-jointed. First joint stout, broad, second and third longer, slender. Terminal joint longest. Male genitalia. Ninth segment forming an almost complete ring. Its posterior dorsal margin moderately produced caudad. Basal part of tenth segment roof-shaped, hairy and with a very small narrow cleft dividing the terminal part of the basement as seen in dorsal view. Its hind-lower por­tion produced into two down-running heavily sclerotized long spines with abrupt subapical upturning almost to vertical position and clearly tapering. Inferior appendages long stout and straight rod in lateral aspect with long hairs on their surfaces and several strong spiniform hairs at their apices. From the very base of inferior appendages somehow from inner surface an arched rather large process arises directed upwards. Seen from above and from beneath they form an incurving arch of nearly equal width. From each of the basal inner corners a small triangular projection arises. The inner terminal part of the inferior appendages supplied with two excisions. The apical excision shallower, the subapical one very deep, excavating almost two-thirds of their width, as figured. Phallic apparatus consisting of short phallotheca concealed within the ninth segment, a downcurving aedeagus with bulbous head and of two long strongly sclerotized spine-like parameres arching to­gether with the aedeagus, but longer and tapering. The new species fits well to the original description of the genus Agoerodes with its strongly developed parameres absent in the related genus Goerodes . At the present level of knowledge this is the only well-defined distinct difference between the two genera besides the conspicuously long cell between the postcostal fold and the margin which is present in Goerodes, although completely absent in Agoerodes . In my species there are two short cells in the same wing area. Agoerodes spinosus sp. n. is very close to Crunobiodes sinuata Martynov, 1935. The generic status of this species was changed to Goerodes at least it is placed into this genus in FISCHER'S catalogus. On the basis of the above-mentioned characters both species clearly belong to the genus Agoerodes . At least parameres are present and the postcostal area with two short cells. The two species very similar and the spinosus differs mainly in the configuration of the distal end of the inferior append­ages and in the formation of tenth segment. The long processes of the tenth segment are plate-like with subacute apices at sinuata and spine-like with upcurving and tapering apices at spinosus. I named this new species according to its very distinct character: spinosus - spiny. Holotype i . Korea, Prov. Kangwon, Mt. Kumgang-San, 27.IX. 1979, leg. STEINMANN et VÁ­SÁRHELYI. Deposited at the Zoological Department, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. Right pair of wings mounted as dry microscopic preparation. Caustic potash-treated abdomen and the remaining part of the body stored in a single airtight selfstanding vial with 70 % ethanol. Psilotreta pyonga sp. n. (Fig. 3) Male (in alcohol). Head and thorax fuscous almost black, as normal for the genus. Legs.palpi and antenna dark brown. Fore wing and hind wing membrane with darker narrow bands along the veins. Both membrane covered with dense dark hairs. Length and largest width of fore wings 11­4.3, those of hind wings 9-4.4 mm. Spurs 2.4.4. Discoidal cell long and narrow on both wings. Apical fork fl overlapping the apical one-third of discoidal cell on fore wings and the apical half of the discoidal cell on hind wing. Apical fork f2 on both wings has no footstalk at all, although their presence is stated as a character of the genus at least for Nearctic species (SCHMID, 1983). On fore wing stem of M completely obsolete and Cu 2 weakly developed. Male genitalia. Ninth segment exhibiting a strong ventral body. Its anterior margin dorsally produced in a rounded lobe more pronounced than at its allied species P. falcula Botosaneanu, 1970. Tergum of the ninth segment producing a long narrowing median process reaching up to the very basement of the recurving intermediate appendages. There is a long median cleft on its distal re­gion. The apex of the ninth tergite fused to the median body of tenth tergite with hardly visible suture. The median part of tenth tergite ending with a setose acute apex just surpassing its lateral lobes. The lateral lobes of tenth tergite strongly sclerotized black plates similar in colour to the median apex of tenth tergite. Their apical apices broadened as clearly visible in dorsal view.These black lateral lobes of the tenth tergite may represent the basement of the intermediate appendages which appear as heavily sclerotized circularly recurving spines. Superior appendages almost rom­boid, not foliate. Inferior appendages with two joints. Coxopodite producing a well-pronounced apico-ventral process nearly as long as half of the harpago. Harpago more slender supplied with
