This study was investigate to ecological characteristic of Trioza ukogi (shinji) on the Acanthopanax senticosus for. inermis Harms during 2004-2005 in Korea. The sizes of Trioza ukogi (shinji) were $0.40{\pm}0.03mm$ in eggs, $0.36{\pm}0.03mm$ in 1st instar nymphs, $2.50{\pm}0.25mm$ in mature nymphs and $5.17{\pm}0.28mm$ in adults (to tip of folded wings), respectively. T. ukogi has two generations per year. First generation appeared from mid-July to late August with peak in early August. Second generation appeared from mid-September to mid-October with peak in late September. Overwintering adults move to host tree and mate from the early April to late May with peak in late April.
