Abstract

One new leafhopper species, L. dangjinensis sp. nov. is described, and L. hebeiensis Cai, Liang & Wang, 1992 is reported from Korea for the first time. Descriptions, photographs, illustrations and biological information of the new species are provided. A key to the Korean Limassolla species is also given. Limassolla macrobipunctata Hossain, Kwon, Suh & Kwon, 2019 is synonymised with L. ishiharai Dworakowska, 1972.
