( Figs. 31−34 )

Рsylla araliae KONOVALOVA, 1981: 11.

Material examined. South Korea (JN, GW, GG) ( NHMB, SNU).

Host plant. Aralia elata (Miq.) Seem. (Araliaceae) , confirmed by the presence of immatures.

Comments. New record for Korea. This species was described in Psylla from the Russian Far East (Konovalova 1988). Cho & Lee (2015a) reported a Cacopsylla sp. from Korea without further locality data associated with Aralia elata (Miq.) Seem. (Araliaceae) which is referable to C. araliae . The species is congeneric with Cacopsylla fatsiae (Jensen, 1957) and C. hederae (Miyatake, 1964) , two species also associated with Araliaceae . For this reason, it is formally transferred here to Cacopsylla .
