Dipogon secumdus [!] Dalla Torre: Kim, 1970: 563, Pl. 54, Fig. 652 (Ş, Korea: Mangwoldae), 806. Misidentification.

Voucher specimen. Ş, Mangwoldae [provincial name uncertain], 1956.x.7, Lee Gyeong No (in Korean)/ Hy. 44, 16 - 3.

Distribution. South Korea (new record), Russian Far East (Primorsky Territory, Kuril Islands: Kunashir), Japan ( Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu).

Notes. This species is new to Korea. It is easily separat- ed from other congeneric species in the Far East by the following combination of characteristics. In females, body length 7 - 12 mm, completely black; metasomal segment 1 shortly pedunculated (subgenus Leptopriocnemis ) ( Fig. 2A View Fig ); hind tibia with setae in faces between protruding scale-like teeth; fore wing with two vertical dark bands (linear one along anterior veins of discoidal cell 1and subdiscoidal cell; larger spot occupying marginal, submarginal cell 1, submarginal cell 2, and apical half of discoidal cell 2 and its outside) and round milkywhite preapical spot ( Fig. 2B View Fig ). In males, body length 6 - 10 mm, elongated, with long legs; metasomal tergum 1 1.4 × as long as broad, shortly pedunculated, with felt of dense light bristles; propodeum with dense, short re- cumbent pale setae; forewings slightly darkened, with one small dark spot at the base of the median vein, one large dark spot occupying the subapical part, and one faint preapical milky white spot; nervulus postfurcal.

Although this species is represented by above one female specimen from North Korea herein, of which multiple specimens in South Korea has been recognized ( Kim, 2023, unpublished manuscript) .

Currently accepted name of Dipogon secundus Dalla Torre stated by Kim (1970) is Priocnemis ( Umbripennis) atrophus known to be endemic to Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu).
