{Abstract}: A taxonomic study of Korean Mantodea using morphological and molecular characters (COI) is presented. Eight species [Amantisnawai (Shiraki, 1908), Acromantisjaponica Westwood, 1889, Mantisreligiosasinica Bazyluk, 1960, Statiliamaculata (Thunberg, 1784), Tenoderaangustipennis Saussure, 1869, T.sinensis Saussure, 1871, Hierodulachinensis Werner, 1929, H.patellifera (Audinet-Serville, 1838)] belonging to six genera in three families are recognized. Interspecific genetic divergence of COI using uncorrected p-distance ranged from 6.7% to 22.4%, while intraspecific divergence ranged from 0% to 2.2% among eight Korean Mantodea species. All eight species were each strongly supported as a single lineage using COI on both neighbor-joining and parsimony trees. An illustrated key, redescriptions, habitus photographs, and illustrations of diagnostic characters of the species of Korean Mantodea are provided to facilitate identification.
