Abstract Pentias thompsoni Collinge, 1916 is recorded for the first time from China. The male specimen is described firstly, including the micromorphological characters of penes and appendix masculina. The partial sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) of the species are also provided for a molecular characterization.

Two new species of feather mites from the superfamily Analgoidea are described from the grey-headed woodpecker, Picus canus, in Korea: Neopteronyssus koreanus sp. nov. (Pteronyssidae) and Proterothrix picinus sp. nov. (Proctophyllodidae: Pterodectinae). Feather mites of the genera Neopteronyssus Mironov, 2002 and Proterothrix Gaud, 1968 are described for the first time in Korea. Morphological descriptions of both new species are complemented with partial sequences of their mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene as DNA barcodes.

A new benthic isopod species, Arcturina serrulatus sp. nov. (Arcturidae Dana, 1849), is described from South Korea. Additionally, we report Limnoria rhombipunctata Yoshino, Watabe & Ohsawa, 2017 (Limnoriidae White, 1850) from the rhizome of Zostera sp. (seagrass). These are the first records of species belonging to the families Arcturidae and Limnoriidae from South Korea. We provide detailed descriptions of the diagnostic characters of the two species. We also determined their partial sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) for molecular diagnosis.

The species of the genus Phaenocarpa Foerster, 1863 (Braconidae: Alysiinae) from South Korea are revised, and the genus is recorded for the first time from South Korea. Three species, Phaenocarpa artotemporalissp. nov., P. brachyurasp. nov. and P. lobatasp. nov., are new to Science, and two species, P. masha Belokobylskij, 1998 and P. fidelis Fischer, 1970, are newly recognized in South Korea. They are described and illustrated herein with a provision of the identification key to the Korean species. In addition, the DNA barcode region of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) has been analyzed for the six species including P. ruficeps for genetic comparison.

Triplectides misakianus (Matsumura 1931) is redescribed on the basis of adults, larvae, and pupae collected in Japan. This report describes the pupal morphology of this species for the first time. A 658-bp fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene as a potential “DNA barcode” is provided. The habitat and conservation of the species are discussed.

Mycterothrips nainiae sp. n. (Thripinae) is described and illustrated from India, and one genus and species, Paithrips circularis Nonaka and Jangvitaya, is newly recorded from India. A key to species of Mycterothrips from India is also provided. The DNA barcode data using partial mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (mtCOI) from the holotype also five sequences of Paithrips circularis were generated.
