A new species of the genus Oligonychus Berlese, 1886, Oligonychus solus n. sp. is described with its diagnostic characteristics and figures from Korea. This new species resembles closely to Oligonychus ununguis (Jacobi, 1905), but is easily distinguished by the transverse striae anterior to genital flap.

Specimens of spider mites parasiting on conifer trees were collected from Korea during the period from May, 1986 to June, 1988. As a result, seven species belonging to the tribe Tetranychini, subfamily Tetranychinae, family Tetranychidae were identified as follows: 1. Panonychus citri(McGregor, 1916), *2. Oligonychus clavatus(Ehara,1959), *. O.hondoensis(Ehara,1954), *4. O.pustulosus Ehara, 1962, 5. O.karamatus(Ehara, 1956), 6. O.perditus Pritchard and Baker, 1955, 7. O. ununguis(Jacobi, 1905). Of which, three species with asterisk are newly recorded from Korea.

The purpose of the present paper is to record taxonomic notes on several Korean spider mites. The specimens on which this study is based were collected by the authors during the period from May, 1986 to June, 1987. The following species are the spider mites concerned in this paper. 1. Panonychus citri (McGregor), 2. Eotetranychus populi Koch, 3. Eotetranychus smithi Pritchard and Baker, 4. Shizotetranychus bambusae Reck, 5. Schizotetranychus celarius (Banks), 6. Shizotetranychus leguminosus Ehara, 7. Oligonychus orthis Rimando, 8. Tetranychus ranzawai Kishida, 9. Tetranychus phaselus Ehara, 10. Tetranychus trancatus Ehara , 11. Tetranychus vienensis Zacher, 12. Tetranychus urticae Koch . Among them, eight species with asterisk are newly recorded from Korea . In addition, empodiums of pretarsus were carefully observed and enzyme patterns by electrophoresis were compared on some species in order induce their systematic inter-relationship at either species or generic level.
