Abstract and Figures
A total of three new records of the plant bug subfamily Mirinae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) are reported from the Korean Peninsula with findings of Apolygus fraxinicola (Kerzhner, 1988), Neolygus juglandis (Kerzhner, 1988), and Polymerus amurensis Kerzhner, 1988. Diagnoses, descriptions of genitalia and biological information of each species are provided.

An annotated checklist of the tribe Mirini (Miridae: Mirinae) recorded on the Korean peninsula is presented. A total of 113 species, including newly described and newly recorded species are recognized. Three new species, Apolygus hwasoonanus Oh, Yasunaga & Lee, sp. n., A. seonheulensis Oh, Yasunaga & Lee, sp. n. and Stenotus penniseticola Oh, Yasunaga & Lee, sp. n., are described. Eight species, Apolygus adustus (Jakovlev, 1876), Charagochilus (Charagochilus) longicornis Reuter, 1885, C. (C.) pallidicollis Zheng, 1990, Pinalitopsis rhodopotnia Yasunaga, Schwartz & Chérot, 2002, Philostephanus tibialis (Lu & Zheng, 1998), Rhabdomiris striatellus (Fabricius, 1794), Yamatolygus insulanus Yasunaga, 1992 and Y. pilosus Yasunaga, 1992 are reported for the fi rst time from the Korean peninsula. Korean specimens previously identifi ed as Eurystylus luteus Hsaio, 1941 are correctly recognized as E. sauteri Poppius, 1915. Three new synonyms are proposed: Apolygus atriclavus Kim & Jung, 2016 syn. n. of A. xanthomelas Yasunaga & Yasunaga, 2000, A. josifovi Kim & Jung, 2016 syn. n. of A. subpulchellus (Kerzhner, 1988) and Capsus koreanus Kim & Jung, 2015 syn. n. of C. wagneri Remane, 1950. Dorsal habitus photographs of the newly described or recorded species are presented along with fi gures of the genitalia of the new species. Keys to Korean genera and to species of Apolygus and Stenotus are provided. Zoogeography of the East Asian Mirini fauna is also discussed. © Institute of Entomology, Biology Centre, Czech Academy of Sciences, České Budějovice.
... The geographical distribution of Heteroptera from around the world has always been of interest to researchers (Latreille 1810;Leach 1815;Panizzi and Grazia 2015;Schuh and Weirauch 2020). Many research papers have been published recently, including Chandra and Kushwaha (2013); Samra et al. (2015); Vinokurov et al. (2015); Yasunaga (2016); Drapolyuk (2017); Henry (2017b); Oh et al. (2017); Kim and Jung (2018); Kuzhuget and Vinokurov (2018); Gapon (2019); Yazici (2020); Gandjaeva (2011Gandjaeva ( , 2012aGandjaeva ( , b, 2020; Gandjaeva and Abdullaeva (2022a, b); Gandjaeva and Allabergenova (2022); Gandjaeva et al.

The purpose of this study is to perform a zoogeographic analysis of terrestrial true bugs (Heteroptera) in the Lower Amudarya Territory, Uzbekistan. According to the findings of a literature review, there are 149 species of terrestrial hemipterans in the Territory. All hemipteran species, with the possible exception of five, have most likely been misidentified. Until now, reliable information on the zoogeography of true bug species in Uzbekistan’s north-western region has not been published. The composition of species, diversity, and the proportion of endemism vary greatly across the country’s zoogeographic regions. The Heteroptera fauna of the Khorezm and Karakalpakstan can be divided into four groups: most species belonging to the Palaearctic region, with 125 species constituting 83.89% of the fauna; the second group of Holarctic origin is characterized by no more than ten species, which constitutes 6.71%; the third consists of en- demics, 13 species or 8.72%; and one species (0.67%) is cosmopolitan. Much more research is needed to investigate distributions in a more northern climate. The introduction of invasive Heteroptera to the north-western part of Uzbekistan will increase and deserves further consideration.
... Scientific studies on the global distribution of Heteroptera can be found in the works of foreign scientists such as Latreille (1810) and Leach (1815). Many research papers have been published recently, including Chandra and Kushwaha (2013); Samra et al. (2015); Vinokurov et al. (2015); Yasunaga (2016); Drapolyuk (2017); Henry (2017b); Oh et al.

Approximately 384 species of true bugs were identified during expeditions, and their zoogeography was studied in Central Asia by prominent zoologists such as Oshanin (1891), who was the first scientist to investigate Heteroptera zoogeography and listing more than 530 species of true bugs. ...
The purpose of this study is to examinea zoogeographic analysis of terrestrial true bugs(Heteroptera) in the Lower Amudaryaterritory. According to the findingof the literaturereview,there are 149 species of terrestrial hemipteransin the Lower Amudarya. All hemipteran species with the possible exception of five, have most likely been misidentified. Until now, the zoogeography of true bug species in Uzbekistan’s north-western part has not been studied. In addition, new locality records for the species collected and diagnosedare provided. The species compositionof species, diversity, and proportion of endemism vary greatly acrossthe country’szoogeographic regions.In the last two decades, increased introductions from Iran and China to Uzbekistan have been observed. TheHeteropterafauna of the Khorezm and Karakalpakstan could be divided into fourgroups: most species belong to the Palaearctic ranges, with 125species constituting 83.89%; the second group of Holarctic ranges is characterized by no more than 10 species, which constitutes 6.71%; and the third group is Endemic species, 13 species or 8.72% of various genesisand 1 species constituting 0.67% is Cosmopolitan range. Currently, new alien species from Iran and China are having negative impacts on crop yield. As a result, more research is needed to investigate distribution effects in a northern climate. The introduction of alien Heteroptera to the north-western part of Uzbekistan will increase and deserve further consideration.
... The plant bug subfamily Mirinae is the largest group in Heteroptera (Insecta: Hemiptera) in the world (Schuh and Slater 1995;Schuh 2002e2013, Schwartz 2008. In Korea, a total of 115 species in 41 genera in this subfamily have been hitherto reported (e.g., Lee et al 2013, Kim andJung 2018). However, the further investigation for Korean fauna of this group is still needed. ...
Two genera of the plant bug in the subfamily Mirinae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) are newly reported from the Korean Peninsula with discoveries of Tolongia pilosa Yasunaga, 1991 and Yamatolygus insulanus Yasunaga, 1994. The male genital structure of T. pilosa is remarked. Female genitalia of Y. insulanus is described for the first time. Morphological information such as diagnoses is also provided. © 2018 National Science Museum of Korea (NSMK) and Korea National Arboretum (KNA)
A genus Castanopsides Yasunaga (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae: Mirinae) is reviewed from the Korean Peninsula. Castanopsides falkovitshi (Kerzhner 1979) is reported for the first time. Descriptions of male genitalia, diagnoses, and a key to the Korean Castanopsides are provided with illustrations and photographs.
Two new species of the genus Apolygus are described from the Korean Peninsula: A. rubrifasciatus sp. nov. and A. atri-clavus sp. nov. Descriptions and diagnoses, and some biological information are presented with photographs and illustra-tions. A key to the Korean Apolygus species is also provided.
Fourty-one species of Japanese plant bugs belonging to Lygocoris are revised. This genus has three related subgenera, and is inctuded in the Lygus complex. Each subgenus is defined mainly by the shape of the male genitalia. A, new subgenus Lygocorides is erected for Lygus rubronasutus Linnavuori. Sorne changes and new terms in the terminology of the male genitalia of subgenera Neolygus and Apolygus are proposed. This paper is the first part of a series of the revision of Lygocoris.
A new species, Apolygus josifovi Kim et Jung sp. nov. and a new record Apolygus roseofemoralis are described and reported for the first time from the Korean Peninsula. Morphological information including descriptions of male genitalia and diagnoses, and a key to the Korean Apolygus species are presented with photographs and illustrations.
A genus Stenotus Jakovlev (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) is reviewed taxonomically from the Korean Peninsula with a new record Stenotus binotatus (Fabricius, 1794). Morphological information such as descriptions of male and female genitalia of the Korean species with photographs and illustrations, and a key to the Korean species are provided.
