Two species of the family Gorgoderidae (Trematode: Digenea) . Gorgonerc japonica Yamaguti, 1936 and Gorgoderinc bombince Yu & Lee, 1983 were collected from the urinary bladder of frogs captured from various localities in Korea. The morphology of each species is described and illustrated. Gorgodera japonica differs from G. cygnoides by having deeply branched vitellaria. Gorgodera bombince is considered a valid species.
