Description
Tribe
Artonini Tarmann, 1994Type genus.
Artona Walker, 1854.
Notes.
The tribe Artonini was established by Tarmann (1994) with Artona Walker, 1854, as the type genus. It comprises approximately 86 species, 12 genera, and five subgenera (Efetov and Tarmann 2024). The members of this tribe are primarily restricted to the Afrotropical and Indo-Australian regions, although a few species also occur in the eastern Palaearctic region (Tarmann 2004).
The latest Korean insect checklist by KSAE and ESK (2021) includes three species of two genera of this tribe, viz. Balataea Walker, 1865, and Fuscartona Efetov & Tarmann, 2012. Byun et al. (2010) reported one genus of Artonini, viz. Artona Walker, 1854, with a single species, Artona martini Efetov, 1997, from Seoul, Korea. However, this species was omitted in the KSAE and ESK (2021) checklist. According to Efetov and Tarmann (2024), the two previously recorded genera in Korea are now treated as subgenera within Artona Walker. In this study, we report an additional genus, Amuria Staudinger, 1887, with a new species, A. baei sp. nov. from Goeje Island, Korea. Totally five species of two genera from the tribe Artonini are currently known from Korea.
