Elampus bidens ($F\ddot{o}rster$) is reported from Korea. The genus and species are new to Korea. This species is easily distinguished by a pair of processes on apical margin of metasomal tergum III. A checklist of the 45 current valid Korean species placed in the family Chrysididae is presented. A key to subfamilies, tribes, genera of Korean Chrysididae is also provided.

Korean species of the genus Elampus Spinola is taxonomically reviewed. Korean fauna of the genus Elampus was known by one sepcies, Elampus bidens (F$\ddot{o}$rster). This study reports new discover of another Korean species E. musashinus (Tsuneki). This species was described based on male, and the female has been still unknown. With comparison of partial mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I gene sequences, the sex-association of this species is established, the Korean specimens of both sexes completely identical in their sequences targeted. Herein the female description of E. musashinus is presented for the first time. A key to the Korean species, as well as diagnosis and digital images are provided.

A taxonomic review of the Korean Chrysis smaragdula group (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae), characterized by the six apical teeth (including lateral angles or obtuse protuberances) of metasomal tergum 3, is presented. Three species, namely Chrysis daphne, C. equestris, C. principalis, are included herein. Of these, C. equestreis is recorded from Korea for the first time. Chrysis daphne is a corrected name for the previous Korean records under the name of C. fasciata. A determination key to species complemented with illustrations is made. Additional diagnoses including color variations and descriptions of male genitalia (unavailable in C. equestris) based on Korean materials are also provided.

The Korean occurrence of Holopyga generosa (F$\ddot{o}$rster, 1853) is reported here for the first time. The genus is also new to Korea. This species might be easily distinguished from other Holopyga species by its relatively long hairs on the head and mesosoma. Diagnosis and digital images are provided.

A cuckoo wasp species Nipponosega yamanei Kurzenko & Lelej is recorded in Korea for the first time. Of the two forms known from Japan, it is more similar to yamanei-form than kantoensis-form: eye margin almost evenly rounded in frontal view. The species of the two subfamilies, Chrysidinae and Cleptinae, have been listed for the Korean fauna. This species is the first representative of the third subfamily Amiseginae in Korea. It is known to be endemic to Japan. Thus, the distributional range of this species has been extended to the continental part herein. A description is made for further morphological comprehension on the basis of Korean materials.
