Tsuneki, K.: Sphecidae (Hymenoptera) from Korea

Specimens examined : 1 9 > Prov. South Phenan, Bong-ha ri, on the river Te-dong, 45 km E from Pyongyan, 23. V. 1970 (No. 19); 1 O., Prov. do., Sa-gam po, 30 km N from Pyongyan, 24.

Distribution: Hitherto known from Europe and Japan, new to Korea. Remarks. — In the female specimens of Korea the clypeus is at its medial produced part distinctly broader than in the Japanese representatives. In the female specimens from South Phenan the second abdominal segment is at the base beneath slightly ferruginous, while in those from South Pyongan the abdomen is much more broadly, sometimes even the ventral side wholly, ferruginous. This is not the case with the specimens in Japan. 63.

, but differs from it in the form of the mucro, lamella and in the colour of the hind tibiae and easily separable from it. The male is very close to 0. gobiensis TSUN., known from Mongolia, but can be distinguished it from by the characters of the clypeus, by the relative width of OOD and postocellus and by the difference in the colour of the antennae, pronotum and abdomen. The present species is also closely allied to the Japanese congener, 0. nipponicus TSUN., but is different from this in the form of the clypeus, mucro and lamella and in the colour of the hind legs. 9 • Length 5.5 mm.
