Abstract

We report the first discovery of Nesendaeus monochrous Voss, 1953, from the fruits of the Korean endemic species Glochidion chodoense C.S. Lee and H.T. Im, and identify this species as a seed feeder. Within the Palaearctic region, the genus Nesendaeus Marshall, 1931 has been represented only by this species, which was previously recorded from China; however, its biology and life history remain poorly understood. This species resembles Heterochyromera imerodeus Kojima and Morimoto, 1996, but can be clearly distinguished by its relatively longer elytra with bisinuately round apices. We provide a diagnosis and brief biological information of the species along with images of its habitus, ovule feeding larvae and host plant.
