Abstract

The family Thanerocleridae was formerly treated as a subfamily of Cleridae but is now recognized as a distinctive family within the superfamily Cleroidea. Herein the family Thanerocleridae Chapin, 1924 is recorded from South Korea for the first time based on a female specimen of Thaneroclerus buquet (Lefebvre, 1835) collected in Gwangneung Forest. The specimen was collected using a window trap installed 9 m above the ground in a Quercus serrata stand during a canopy survey. Images of the habitus and diagnostic characters are provided.
