ANNALES HISTORICO-NATURALES MUSEI NATIONALIS HUNGARICI Tomus84. Budapest, 1992 p. 111-116 New species of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) from East Asia with some new records* by M. L. DANILEVSKY, Moscow DANILEVSKY, M.: New species of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) from East Asia with some new records. Annls hist.-nat Mus. natn. hung. 1992, 84: 111-116. Abstract - Three new species are described from North Korea: Pidonia (s. str.

) kanwonensis sp. n., Phymatodes (Phymatodellus) murzini sp. n, Perissus sinho sp. n. Anoplodera rufihumeralis (TAMANUKI, 1938) is redescribed; this species and Oberea atropunctata Pic are firstly recorded from the Soviet Union. On the basis of type materials, four new synonyms are proposed: Pseudallosterna elegantula (KRAATZ, 1879), comb, n. = Leptura misella BATES, 1884, syn. n.; Cylindilla grisescens BATES, 1884 = Atimura askoldensis HEYDEN, 1884, syn. n.; Cylindilla BATES, 1884 = Askoldatimura BREUNING, 1960, syn. n. and Phymatodes vandykei GRESSITT, 1935 = Phymatodes ussuricus PLAVILSTSHIKOV, 1940, syn. n. With 5 figures. Recent publications on the Cerambycidae of North-Eastern Asia have added considerably to our knowledge of the species and their distribution. Cerambycid beetles of Korea and the Soviet Far East may be considered now as well-known. Nevertheless, in the process of identifying cerambycid samples from the Hungarian Natural History Museum some undescribed and poorly known species from the Far East were found. Looking through the type materials in the Deutsches Entomologisches Institut (Eberswalde) I obtained rather unexpected information about well-known species. Moreover I received some interesting species for description from my friends this year, which were recently collected in the region. A part of these materials is described below. The type specimens designated in this paper are deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest (HNHM) and in the A N. Severtzov Institute of Evolutionary Morphology and Ecology of Animals, Moscow (SI). Abbreviations of measurements - TL = total body length; TW = total body width; PL = pronotal length, PW = pronotal width; EL = elytral length. Pidonia (s. str.) kanwonensis sp. n. (Figs 1-2) Measurements of the holotype. TL = 7.0 mm, TW = 1.75 mm, PL = 1.2 mm, PW = 1.1 mm, EL = 4.5 mm. This species looks like and seems to be closely related to P. quercus CHEREPANOV, 1975, but smaller. Head black with brown clypeus and yellow mouthparts. last palpal segments darkened distally. Eyes slightly emarginated. Vertex with large and regular punction. Tempora shining, moderately short, obliquely rounded. Antennae light brown, segments 3 to 11 darkened apically; filiform, not thickened distally; short, not reaching elytral apex. 3rd antenna! segment a little longer than 1st and distinctly shorter than 1st and 2nd * Zoological collectings by the Hungarian Natural History Museum in Korea, No. 99.
