Diagnosis. For Ufo koreanus three female paratypes were designated originally: two with the same labels as the holotype, and one female labelled: KOREA, NIAST, 10. Oct. 1997. YPT. J. Y. Choi (Melika et al. 2007). Detail examination of U. koreanus holotype and paratypes showed that the one female paratype labelled “ KOREA, NIAST, 10. Oct. 1997. YPT. J. Y.Choi” belongs to the herein newly described species, Ufo cerroneuroteri .
Females emerged at the beginning of October from leaf spangle galls of Cerroneuroterus nawai (Ashmead) , on Q. variabilis (Melika et al. 2007) . Ufo koreanus differs from U. cerroneuroteri by incomplete notauli, extending the most to the half length of the mesoscutum; the median mesoscutal line absent and the 2nd metasomal tergite not incised posterodorsally ( Fig. 44 View FIGURES 40 – 47 ). Also U. koreanus differs from U. nipponicus by the head ovate in anterior view ( Fig. 40 View FIGURES 40 – 47 )(trapezoid in U. nipponicus , Fig. 18 View FIGURES 18 – 22 ) and F 1 in the female antenna 1.4´longer than the pedicel ( Fig. 42 View FIGURES 40 – 47 ) (2.0´in U. nipponicus , Fig. 22 View FIGURES 18 – 22 ).
Distribution. Known from Republic of Korea, Suwon, Mt. Yeo Gi (Melika et al. 2007).
