Abstract

Pediciinae crane flies belonging to the genus Dicranota Zetterstedt, 1838 of the Korean Peninsula were studied beginning in 1933, but only seven species have been recorded from North Korea so far; the genus was unknown from South Korea. Seventeen species were found during our studies on the Peninsula, three of them described as new: D. (Eudicranota) distincta Podenas, sp. nov., D. (Rhaphidolabis) seoi Podenas, sp. nov., D. (Rhaphidolabis) yeongokia Podenas, sp. nov. Ten new species are added to the Korean species list, five of them new for North Korea with total number reaching twelve, and eleven species new for South Korea. Habitat, elevation range, and seasonality data is presented for each species. Images of taxonomically important morphological characters, distribution maps, and an identification key for all Korean species of the genus Dicranota are presented.
