Abstract

This article reviews the species of the genus Heterospilus Haliday from South Korea. Nine species, Heterospilus chinjuensissp. nov., H. gajwaensissp. nov., H. heulriensissp. nov., H. hyungkeunleeisp. nov., H. maseongussp. nov., H. suriensissp. nov., H taehoani sp. nov., H. weolchulsanussp. nov., and H. yeogiensissp. nov., are described as new to science. The species Heterospilus fujianensis Tang, Belokobylskij, He & Chen, 2013 is recorded for the fauna of Korea for the first time; H. ater Fischer, 1960 is synonymised under H. austriacus (Szépligeti, 1906). Heterospilus rubicola Fischer, 1960 and H. corsicus (Marshall, 1888) are excluded from the fauna of Korea. A key to all Heterospilus species known from the Korean Peninsula is compiled.
