ABSTRACT
A taxonomic study of Spilonota Stephens, 1834, in Korea is conducted, and S. prognathana (Snellen, 1883) which had previously been merged with S. albicana (Motschulsky, 1866) is separated again. Additionally, as a result of research based on materials from Incheon National University two new species; S. samseong Choi, Bae & Nasu, S. laticucullusa Choi, Bae & Nasu proposed from Korea. The study provides brief descriptions of Spilonota species in Korea, with illustrations of the adult and genital morphology. Identification key for the known species reported from Korea is included.

Background: The genus Nycteola Hübner has been mainly distributed in the Old World and usually feeds on Fagaceae and Salicaceae, but Myrtaceae and Juglandaceae have also been reported. In Korea, the number of this genus has been changed from four to three after 2007, but three or four species are listed confusingly up to now. New information: The Japanese endemic species Nycteoladufayi Sugi, 1982 are firstly reported for the Continents with its brief biology. Additionally, Korean fauna of nycteolid species are reviewed.
