Rosaceae : Sorbus aucuparia L. Remarks . This is a rare species previously known only from Finland and Yakutia, Russia ( Shinohara & Vasilenko 2005 ). This is the first record from Korea . The larvae are gregarious web-spinners on Sorbus ( Vikberg 2002 ) . Another species of Pamphilius , whose larvae are gregarious web-spinners on Sorbus , is P. montanus montanus Shinohara, 1985 , from Honshu, Japan ( Shinohara & Kojima 2011 ). The larvae of these two species have not been differentiated. The Korean specimens examined differ from the Finnish specimens in a darker colour pattern. In Korean females, the entire tergum 1, large areas on the terga 2 and 6 and the entire terga 7 and 8 are black and all the sterna are broadly black basally. In Finnish females, the entire tergum 1 and very narrow areas on the terga 2 and 6 to 8 are black and the sterna 2, 3, 6 and 7 are marked with black basally. In almost all males from Korea , the postocular stripe terminates at the corner of the upper inner orbits, whereas the postocular stripe extends ventrally along the inner orbits in the Finnish males (see fig. 2 in Vikberg 1971 ). In structural characters, no conspicuous differences have been found. In our molecular analysis, the maximum intraspecific p -distance was 1.3% in COI (n=4) and 0.1% in NaK (n=4). The nearest neighbour was P. balteatus ( Fallén, 1808 ) , diverging by a minimum of 3.7% in the COI analysis, and P. confusus Shinohara, 2005 , diverging by a minimum of 0.4%, in the NaK analysis. In the COI tree ( Fig. 151 ), P. aucupariae branched off near the base of the P. vafer group and its affinities are unclear, whereas in the NaK tree ( Fig. 161 ) it was retrieved as sister to P. leleji with UFBoot support of 98%.
