Pherbellia koreana ROZKOŠNÝ et KOZÁNEK, 1989

This species is based on the male holotype and the female paratype from North Korea, Ryongaksan Mts, 10 km W of Pyongyang. It belongs to the P. scutellaris species group, which has the midfrontal stripe reaching only to the middle of the frons, a bare anepisternum and the wings uniformly slightly brownish infuscated. The shape of the male surstyli is species-specific, resembling P. scutellaris (ROSER, 1840) and P. silana RIVOSECCHI, 1989 , but the anterior surstylus is unusually enlarged in relation to the posterior surstylus. The proximal part of the ejaculatory apodeme is without a ridge and is rod-like.

Distribution: No additional specimens have been recorded.
