The subfamily Prometopinae Böving and Craighead, 1931 (Coleoptera: Cucujoidea: Nitidulidae) is newly recorded from Korea. We recognized two species in two different genera; Prometopia unidentata Hisamatsu, 1959, Parametopia x-rubrum Reitter, 1884. In this study, we provide re-description, photographs and a key to species based on Korean specimens.
