Adults of non-biting midges (Diptera, Chironomidae) were collected at Jeollabuk-do, Muju-gun, Muju-eup, Dangsan-ri on 5 September 2008, 22 May 2009 and 28 August 2009. Collection sites were near Namdae-stream which runs throu-gh the western area of Muju-eup. Chironomid adults attract-ed to the light sources of buildings such as restaurants, stores, police substation and the health center were aspirated by a suckling tube, and preserved in 75% ethanol. Later, they were dissected under stereomicroscope using fine needles to retri-eve antennae, head, wings and hypopygium, and were mount-ed on polyvinyl alcohol medium. They are presently fully des-cribed with illustrations. Chironominae is the largest sub-family among eight subfamilies of the family Chironomidae, and three tribes are recognized: Chironomini, Pseudochiro-nomini and Tanytarsini. The tribe Tanytarsini is characterized by wing with macrotrichia, squama bare, RM parallel to R₄₊₅, and hypopygium with median volsella. In Korea, two species of Tanytarsini was reported for the first time by Ree and Kim (1988), one species by Ree (1989), two species by Ree (1992), one species by Ree and Kim (2003), four species by Na (2004), and seven species by Ree and Jeong (2010). Adding 10 species by the present paper, total 27 species of Tanytarsini are recorded. The type specimens have been de-posited in the collection of Arthropods of Medical Importance Resource Bank, Department of Environmental Medical Bio-logy, Yonsei University College of Medicine. Terminology follows that of Saether (1980).

Gonostylus tapered apically, with an api-cal and several inner-lateral setae distally.

Distribution. Europe (England, France, Belgium), Mongo-lia, Japan, Korea.

Remarks.This species was reported in Europe (Edwards, 1929; Goetghebuer, 1937; Pinder, 1978) and Japan (Sasa and Kamimura, 1987). Sasa and Kamimura (1987) remarked that specimens collected in Japan was tentatively diagnosed as Paratanytarsus inopertus, because of the different body coloration (mostly dark brown in Japanese specimens, where-as light green in England species). However, Edwards (1929) found that there was a variation form in body color. Our specimens differ from Japanese specimens, and are similar to those of Europe in body coloration. LR is 1.2 in Japanese sample, but 1.4-1.5 in English samples, and our specimens are 1.60. Therefore, our specimens coincide well with Pa.inopertus in Europe.

Distribution. Korea (Muju).

Remarks. This new species is extremely similar to Tanytar-sus tamaoctavus Sasa in most morphological characters, including body colors, twisted digitus, and absence of me-dian volsella. The differences are (1) anal point of our new species is rather wide (not slender), not expanded at middle and slightly tapered apically, with clear anal crest and 7-8 spine clusters, whereas that of Ta. tamaoctavus is slender, roughly parallel-sided, slightly expanded in the middle, with 3-4 spine clusters, (2) the value of AR is 0.82 in the former

species and 0.65 in the latter, (3) the gonostylus is more slen-der in the former, and (4) R₂₊₃ is absent in our specimens (Sasa, 1980). Na (2004) collected 10 specimens of Ta. tam-aoctavus at Gapyeong, Gyeonggi-do, Korea; her description and illustration coincide well with those of Ta. tamaocta-vus.

Distribution. Korea (Muju).

Remarks. Most characters of this new species coincided well with those of Tanytarsus yunosecundus Sasa, including the hypopygium, but it differs in that (1) the wing length is much shorter (1.4 mm vs. 2.1 mm), (2) the value of LR is significantly larger (4.16 vs. 2.40), (3) the frontal tubercle is wider and shorter (18 ㎛ long×15 ㎛ wide vs 24 ㎛ long×12 ㎛ wide), and (4) the pulvillus is absent, whereas a moderately developed pulvillus is present in Ta. yunosecun-dus (Sasa, 1984). Body size (represented by wing length) and size of frontal tubercles show considerable range of variation according to geographical and other environmen-tal conditions. However, the LR and pulvillus belong to rather stable characteristics.

Gonostylus fused with gonocoxite, inner margin almost straight, with an apical, several setae and numerous microtrichiae distally.

Distribution. Japan and Korea.

Remarks. Our specimens coincide well with Tanytarsus tamagotoi described by Sasa (1983) and Sasa and Kikuchi (1986) in most key characters, except for wing length (1.88 mm vs. 1.47) and AR (1.16 vs. 0.87).

Diagnosis. Small, right yellow species (WL 1.2 mm). Anal

point rather small, tapered at tip, with distinct anal crest; anal spines absent. Superior volsella ovoid, with 4-5 minute setae dorsally; finger-like digitus projecting beyond margin of superior volsella. Median volsella short, directed back-ward, with 5-7 spoon-shaped lamellar setae. Gonostylus rather small, tapered apically. AR 0.73. LR 2.42.

Anal point rather short, tapered at tip, with distinct anal crest distinct; anal spines absent. Superior volsella (Fig.10 C) ovoid, with 4-5 minute setae dorsally;finger-like digitus projecting slightly beyond margin of supe-rior volsella. Median volsella (Fig.10 D) short, directed back-ward, with 5-7 spoon-shaped lamellar settae. Inferior volsel-la cylindrical, with 6-8 rather short setae apically. Gonosty-lus rather small, tapered apiclly, with 1 apical and 5-6 inner-lateral setae.

Remarks. Sasa (1989) described a new species, Tanytarsus uresiacutus with 2 males collected at Ureshino river in Toyama, Japan. Our specimens coincide well with T. uresia-cutus in morphological key characters, except the absence of frontal tubercles. He described that moderate size (22 ㎛ long) of frontal tubercles are present. Two males of Sasa’s specimens lacked forelegs so that there was no value for the LR. LR of our specimens is 2.42.
