A taxonomic study of the fungivorous Korean Endomychidae is presented. Ten species in seven genera belonging to three subfamilies are recognized in Korea. Four species, Endomychus gorhami (Lewis), Eumorphus quadriguttatus pulchripes Gerstaecker, Lycoperdina castaneipennis Gorham, and Mycetina ancoriger Gorham, are newly recorded in Korea. Most species are associated with the fungus-grown bark, and mold contaminated materials. I provide information on host-fungi records of Korean Lycoperdina castaneipennis Gorham.
