초록


본 연구에서 Tetraneura triangula 를 국내에서 처음으로 보고한다. 이 종의 분포지역, 기주식물, 형태학적 정보를 제공하였다.



    The genus Tetraneura is one of the bigger genera of the tribe Eriosomatini and comprised of two subgenera, Tetraneura and Tetraneurella. All species of this genus have the cast-off skin of the first-instar gall former which strongly sclerotized and characterized by species-specific features. In addition, galls produced by Tetraneusra spp. are closed, pouch-shaped with a peduncle, and formed on the upper surface of the host leaf. In Korea, nine species have been recorded: Tetraneura yezoensis (Matsumura, 1917) was firstly recorded by Okamoto and Takahashi (1927);T. ulmi (Linnaeus, 1758) was recorded by Saito (1941); Then, five species T. paiki (Hille Ris Lambers, 1970), T. radicicola (Strand, 1929), T. polychaeta (Hille Ris Lambers, 1970), T. sorini (Hille Ris Lambers, 1970), and T. nigriabdominalis (Sasaki, 1899) were recorded by Hille Ris Lambers (1970);T. iriensis (Lee et al., 1993) and T. pumilae (Lee et al., 1993) were recorded by Lee, Seo and Hwang (1993). Recently, Watanabe et al. (2022) reported the name T. nigriabdominalis (Sasaki, 1899) is discarded as an erroneous combination, and Tetraneura akinireSasaki, 1904 is adopted as a valid name. In 2019, we newly collected samples of Tetraneura triangula Zhang & Zhang, 1991 on Ulmus sp. in Korea. In this study, we report emigrant and embryo of Tetraneura triangula for the first time in Korea.

    Materials and methods

    Samples were preserved in 95% ethanol and then mounted Canada balsam, following the method of Blackman and Eastop (2000). Images and measurements were taken by LEICA (DM3000 LED) and LEICA (CTR6 LED). All specimens were deposited in the Institute of Agriculture & Life Science, Gyeongsang National University. The following abbreviations are used in morphological features: BL - body length from the head to the end of cauda; Ant.I-VI - antennal segments, respectively; Ant.VIb - antennal segment base of VI; PT - processus terminalis; URS - Ultimate rostrum segment; 1HT - first tarsal segment of hind leg; 2HT - second tarsal segment of hind leg; HTB - hind tibia; GP - genital plate; ABDT - Abdominal tergite; SIPH - Siphunculi; Co - Costa; Cu - Cubitus; M - Media; Pt - Pterostigma; Rs - Radial sector.
