Abstract

A terrestrial talitrid amphipod, Platorchestia japonica (Tattersall, 1922), has been recorded for the first time from Korea. This species was collected from riversides (Han River, Bukhan River and Hantan River) in Korea. Descriptions of diagnostic characters of the species are provided in the text. A key to the four species of Korean Platorchestia is also provided.
