Collection: Pensoft Publishers

Keywords: Coleoptera · Topics: Marine Ecology and Invasive Species, Coleoptera Taxonomy and Distribution, Lepidoptera: Biology and Taxonomy

A taxonomic study of the South Korean Hydraenidae is presented. Eight species in two genera are recognized, one of which is reported for the first time in the Korean peninsula, Ochthebius marinus (Paykull). It was also found that Hydraena riparia Kugelann and O. inermis Sharp previously recorded in South Korea were incorrect identifications of H. puetzi Jäch and O. lobatus Pu, respectively. Habitus and SEM photographs, line drawings of aedeagus, distribution maps, keys, and redescriptions of the species are provided.
