Abstract

Two new crane fly species, Dicranomyia (Erostrata) jejuensissp. nov. and D. (E.) koreanasp. nov., from Korea are described on the basis of morphology and mitochondrial COI sequences. DNA barcode sequences for other four D. (Erostrata) species from Korea are also provided for the first time. The identification key for all known D. (Erostrata) species is presented.

Keywords: DNA barcode; Dicranomyia (Erostrata) jejuensis; Dicranomyia (Erostrata) koreana; Limoniinae; taxonomy.
