Abstract

The genera Cryptophagus Herbst and Henoticus Thomson (Coleoptera: Cucujoidea: Cryptophagidae) include over 200 and approximately 35 described species worldwide, respectively. In this study, three cryptophagid beetle species, Cryptophagus micaceus Rey, Cryptophagus zonatus Lyubarsky, and Henoticus pilifer Reitter, are recorded for the first time in Korea. As a result, the genera Cryptophagus and Henoticus in Korea increased 13 and two species, respectively. Photographs of habitus, diagnostic characters, and a distribution map for the three species are provided.
