In this paper, a total of 11 species of the genus Chirosia are treated. Among them, a species, Chirosia flavipennis (Fallen, 1823), is newly added to Korean fauna. The keys to Korean species, host plants and domestic localities are given. Some illustrations of male genitalic features are included. The cladistic analysis of the Korean species is performed using Musca domestica (Muscidae), Scathophaga stercoraria (Scathophagidae), Delia platura (Anthomyiidae) and Anthomyia angulata (Anthomyiidae) as outgroups.

Bactrocera depressa and B. scutellata are serious insect pests to pumpkin in Korea. Adult stage which exposes to aerial condition is the optimal target for control because the immature stages of both species hide within host fruit, flowers or under ground. This study aimed to develop an attract-to-kill technique of their females. A commercially available attract-to-kill agent was not effective to attract these two pumpkin fruit flies. This study developed an attractant containing protein-based terpinyl acetate (TA). This TA-protein lure was effective to attract two pumpkin fruit flies. It attracted both sexes with female-biased frequency (60-70%). This TA-protein lure would be used for control both pumpkin fruit flies and may be used for monitoring field populations of B. depressa, in which specific attractant is not known.

A new species of Platygasteridae, Inostemma hockpari (n. sp.) is described from Korea. This new species is an important biological control agent of the pine gall midge together with Inostemma seoulis, Platygaster matsutama and Inostemma matsutama (Collected in Jinhae by the author) in Korea.

Monitoring exotic fruit flies is essential for quarantine procedure. Wax formulation containing fruit fly lures is relatively long-lasting in field conditions and has been applicable to monitor the fruit flies. This study was performed to extend the application of wax formulation against different fruit flies. The wax formulation containing lures was tested in Thailand, at which various exotic fruit flies inhabited. Captured flies were identified to be Bactrocera dorsalis, Zeugodacus cucurbitae, and Zeugodacus caudata by molecular diagnosis technique.

Among flies inside mushroom growing rooms in three farms, Lycoriella ingenua and Megaselia tamilnaduensis were the most common and dominant species during Pleurotus ostreatus cultivation in Korea. In the past, generally, during the incubation period, a low density of mushroom flies was observed in all farms. After the first harvest, mushroom flies density tended to increase sharply. However, many mushroom flies were observed in the summer, despite that season corresponds to the incubation period. This is because annual cultivation systems provide a safe overwintering place compared to seasonal selective ones. The ecology of mushroom flies varies greatly according to the cultivation system. We confirmed that a fallow period reduced the density of mushroom flies. From a survey of the three dimensional distribution of mushroom flies in a growing room, we observed that M. tamilnaduensis showed more positive phototaxis and a higher variation per point of capture than that by L. ingenua. Through this study, two mushroom fly species were identified in the survey farms, with markedly different three dimensional distribution patterns.

This report deals with three species belonging to three genera of anthomyiid pests from Korea, among them one species is new to science as: Emmesomyia koreana n. sp., and two species are newly recorded from Korean fauna: Meliniella luteipennis (Ringdahl, 1950) and Delia echinata (Seguy, 1923).
