Micromus variegatus (Neuroptera: Hemerobiidae) is reported here as new to South Korea. In addition, three other hemerobiid species recorded only the collection data, Hemerobius harmandinus, Sympherobius tessellatus and S. domesticus are also reported with a brief description, images of the adult and wings, and its Korean common name. With four previously reported species in Korea, there are eight species of the family Hemerobiidae from Korea.

In the subfamily Drepanepteryginae of Hemerobiidae, Neuronema albostigma has been the only species known in Korea. Here we report that the genus Drepanepteryx Leach, 1815 and its species Drepanepteryx phalaenoides ($Linn{\acute{e}}$), 1758 are newly reported as a member of Drepanepteryginae in Korea. Together with a key for the species of Korean Drepanepteryginae, a brief description, COI barcoding sequence, and photos of adult and male genitalia for the species are provided.

This study was performed to investigate the biological characteristics of the brown lacewing Micromus angulatus (Stephens) at four different temperatures (15, 20, 25, and $30^{\circ}C$) and $70{\pm}10%$ relative humidity under a photoperiodic regime of 16:8(L:D) h. The developmental threshold and effective accumulative temperature from egg to pupa for M. angulatus were $9.6^{\circ}C$ and 270.3 day-degrees, respectively. The developmental period of egg, larva, and pupa at $25^{\circ}C$ was 4.4, 5.5, and 6.9 days. respectively. The longevity of an adult female M. angulatus was 34.9 days. The oviposition period for M. angulatus was 28.7 days, in which it laid a total number of 515.2 eggs during its life span. The maximum number of eggs laid by a female in a day was 54.8. Daily consumption by M. angulatus at $25^{\circ}C$ was 18.9 $1^{st}$ instars, 47.2 $2^{nd}$ instars, 57.7 $3^{rd}$ instars, and 91.0 adults of the glasshouse potato aphid, Aulacorthum solani. Therefore, M. angulatus could be a promising biological control agent against aphids.
