Description
Summary:Heterangaeus Alexander, 1925 East Palaearctic genus Heterangaeus Alexander, 1925 has only eight species worldwide (including new species, described in this paper) (Table 2). Two of them have two subspecies each. Three species are known from the continent: H. gloriosus gloriosus, H. mongolicus and H. koreanus n. sp. Remaining species are endemic to Japan. Only H. gloriosus gloriosus has comparatively wide distribution, it is known not only from the continent, but also from Japan and Kuril and Sakhalin islands of Russia. Not much can be said about biology and ecology of these species. Most species are known only from original descriptions and original specimens. Despite H. gloriosus kusunoki, H. palidellus and H. spectabilis were described from females, only ovipositor of H. mongolicus was illustrated (Podenas et.al. 2014). Larva is described only for H. mongolicus. Characteristic morphological details of genus Heterangaeus were described by Alexander (1925), later updated by Alexander (1958), and a key for ... : Published as part of Podenas, Sigitas, Podeniene, Virginija & Byun, Hye-Woo, 2015, Heterangaeus Alexander, 1925 crane flies (Diptera: Pediciidae) of Korea, pp. 506-520 in Zootaxa 4006 (3) on pages 508-509, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4006.3.5, http://zenodo.org/record/231910 ...
