Description
Ulziijargal Bayarsaikhan and five colleagues record, in a 2026 paper, the moth tribe Artonini in Korea for the first time in organised form. These small day-flying moths belong to the burnet moth family, and the Korean fauna of this tribe had not been reviewed as a group.
Five species in two genera are documented. One, Amuria baei, is described as new to science. The paper illustrates adults and their genitalia — the structures taxonomists rely on to separate close species — for every recorded member of the tribe. It closes with a checklist of all zygaenid moths known from Korea, arranged under a 2024 classification. The work gives Korean entomology a reference point for this group.
