Seven species [Dineutus orientalis (Modeer, 1776), Gyrinus gestroi Régimbart, 1883, G. japonicus Sharp, 1873, G. pullatus Zaitzev, 1908, Orectochilus punctipennis Sharp, 1884, O. Regimbarti Sharp, 1884 and O. villosus (Müller, 1776)] in three genera are recognized, one of which (O. punctipennis Sharp, 1884) is reported for the first time in Korea. We also found that G. curtus Motschulsky, 1866 previously recorded in Korea was an incorrect identification of G. pullatus Zaitzev, 1908. Habitus and SEM photographs, distribution maps, keys, and diagnoses of genera and species are provided.}, issn = {1313-2989}, pages = {87-107}, URL = {https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.509.9442}, eprint = {https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.509.9442}, journal = {ZooKeys} }
