초록

Paradexamine jindoensis n. sp. belonging to family Dexaminidae was collected from Jindo Island, Korea. The new species is fully illustrated and compared with related congeners. The new species resembles highly P. houtete, in having the tooth formulae of dorsal pleonites, 1-3-3-3, rear to front and in bearing short spines on the mandible. However, it is characteristic in having the several morphological differences of mouth parts, slender appendages, and longer peduncular article 2 of antenna 1 than article 1.
