  • The genus Scutellathous Kishii, 1955 is a small group known from Korea, Japan, and Taiwan. We carried out a taxonomic study on the Korean species of Scutellathous for the first time. As the result, S. porrecticollis (Lewis, 1894) is revealed to be commonly distributing in Korea and Japan. Additionally, we found that the previous record of Athous jactatus (Lewis, 1894) from North Korea is misidentification of S. porrecticollis. We herein provide redescription of S. porrecticollis and the result of DNA barcoding of congeners belonging to Scutellathous.
