Lonchaea bicercosa MacGowan

SUMMARY
Differential diagnosis; most similar in the Korean fauna to Lonchaea
gachilibong with which it shares rather similar male genitalia. Apart
fromthemain difference of the presence of 2 setae on the proepimeron
in L. gachilibong and only 1 in L. bicercosa the later species is further
distinguished by having entirely bare eyes and a longer 1st antennal
flagellomere (length depth ratio 1.4:1 in L. gachilibong). Further material
will help to establish to true relationship between these two
species
