(91–96: holotype, 97: paratype): 91 = head in dorsal view, 92 = head in lateral view, 93 = mandible, 94 = mesoscutum, 95 = hind femur, 96 = distal part of right fore wing, 97 = hind femur. — 98–101. Chorebus (Stiphrocera) coxator (THOMSON): 98 = mandible, 99 = clypeus in lateral view, 100 = mesoscutum, 101 = head in dorsal view. – 102–103. C. (S.) granulosus TOBIAS: 102 = distal part of right fore wing, 103 = mandible Description of the two female paratypes. – Similar to the female holotype. Body 2.8–3 mm long. Antenna with 40 and 42 antennomeres. Hind femur 3.8 times as long as broad distally (1 f, Fig. 97). First tergite 1.5 times as long as broad behind (1 f). Hind coxa basally just brownish. Description of the male paratype. – Similar to the female types. Body 2.8 mm long. Antenna with 42 antennomeres. Femora 1–2 with weak brownish suffusion. Host unknown. Distribution: Korea. The new species, Chorebus (Stiphrocera) senes, runs to Ch. (St.) coxator (THOMSON) and Ch. (St.) granulosus TOBIAS with the help of TOBIAS’ s keys (1986: 183, 1998: 358). The common feature of the three species is the granulose mesoscutum and mesopleuron. The distinctive features of the three species are as follows: 1.) The distinction of Ch. coxator and Ch. senes: 1 (2) First tergite 1.25–1.3 times as long as broad behind, logitudinally striate, interstriations rugulo-subrugulose; pair of spiracles nearly to the middle (Fig. 105). Upper tooth of mandible pointed, lower (or fourth) tooth rounded (Fig. 98). Clypeus in lateral view more projecting (Fig. 99, see arrow). Mesoscutum evenly granulose (Fig. 100). Head in dorsal view 1.8 times as broad as long (Fig. 101). Antenna with 29–35 antennomeres. Coxae more or less brownish to brown. fm: 2.4–2.8 mm. – Sporadic in the Palaearctic Region C. (S.) coxator (THOMSON, 1895) 2 (1) First tergite 1.6 times as long as broad behind, densely rugulose with striate elements; pair of spiracles clearly before the middle (Fig. 104). Upper tooth of mandible slightly less pointed (Fig. 93). Clypeus in lateral view less projecting (Fig. 92, see lower arrow). Mesoscutum anteriorly faintly subgranulose (Fig. 94). Head in dorsal view twice as broad as long (Fig. 91). Antenna with 37–42 antennomeres. Coxae yellow. fm: 2.8–3 mm. – Korea Chorebus (Stiphrocera) senes sp. n. 2.) The distinction of Ch. granulosus and Ch. senes: 1 (2) First tergite 1.8–2 times longer than broad behind, rugulose with scrobiculate elements (Fig. 106). Pterostigma narrow, ten times as long as wide, veins somewhat thick (Fig. 102). Head in dorsal view 1.8 times as broad as long, temple slightly longer than eye (cf. Fig. 101). First (or upper) tooth pointed, second tooth of mandible slightly less pointed (Fig. 103). Metasoma beyond first tergite dark rusty. f: 2.3 mm. – Asiatic Russia: Primorski krai C. (S.) granulosus TOBIAS, 1998 2 (1) First tergite 1.5–1.6 times longer than broad behind, rugulose with striate elements (Fig. 104). Pterostigma wide, seven times as long as wide, veins thin (Fig. 96). Head in dorsal view twice as broad as long, temple slightly shorter than eye (Fig. 91). First (or upper) tooth less large, second tooth of mandible slightly more pointed (Fig. 93). Metasoma beyond first tergite rusty (1 m) or reddish yellow (f) with more or less brownish suffusion. fm: 2.8–3 mm. – Korea C. (S.) senes sp. n.
