In Korea,only two species of the tribe Leiodini (Leiodes obesa (SCHMIDT, 1841 ) an d Z eado1opus chaos icus DAFFNER, 1983) have been known t o oc cur. In 1999-2001, we collected many leiodid beetles by flight intercept traps in Koreaand ob- ta ine d Cyr tusa sp ec imens. Af ter care ful examinations, we identi f ied them wi th C antennar ia DA FFNER , 1989 , which had been known to be distributed in only Shikoku, Japan (DAFFNER, m o 19 8 9; H osHINA, 1998). In this repor t, we record the genus Cyrtusa for the first t ime Korea. fr We are ve ry grateful to Pro f. Stewart B.
