Mimemodes Reitter, 1876 and Mimemodes emmerichi Mader, 1937 are reported from Korea for the first time and a historical review of the taxonomic position of this genus is provided. M. emmerichi was found on the island of Guleopdo in the West Sea of Korea, bringing the number of species within the Korean Monotomidae to five. In this study, we provide a key to the genera within the Korean Monotomidae, a redescription of M. emmerichi Mader, and illustrations of its habitus and aedeagus.
