(2001): A review of the Asian species of Aldrichiomyza Hendel (Diptera, Milichiidae). ­Annales historico-naturales Musei nationalis hungarici 93: 91-98. Abstract - Oriental and East Palacarctic species of the milichiid genus Aldrichiomyza HENDEL are studied. A. koreana sp. n. is described from North Korea. With 12 figures. Key words - Diptera, Milichiidae, Aldrichiomyza, Oriental region, East Palacarctic. This is a small genus of Milichiidae with four known species. All the classical literature about them are from FRIEDRICH HENDEL (1911, 1913, 1914, 1931), who described a new genus and species, Aldrichiella agromyzina from the USA (HENDEL 1911), which later was found to be a widespread Nearctic species. Two years later he described a species (Aldrichiella elephas) from Formosa (HENDEL 1913). Since Aldrichiella HENDEL, 1911 is a junior homonym Aldrichiella VAUGHAN, 1903, he had to give it a new name, Aldrichiomyza HENDEL, 1914. Several years later he was who described the first African species, Aldrichiomyza longirostris HENDEL, 1931 from Egypt. Quite recently, IWASA (1997) described A. flaviventris from Japan. When checking acalyptrate dipterous specimens from Taiwan preserved in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum (HNHM), T found that most of the Aldrichiomyza specimens from Korea belongs to a new species, which is described below. Aldrichiomyza HENDEL, 1914 In her phylogenetic revision of the Milichiidae BRAKE (2000) analysed also the relationships of the phyllomyzine genera Neophyllomyza MELANDER, Zoological collectings by the Hungarian Natural History Museum in Korea, No. 138.
