Three penaeid species, Penaeus monodon, P. semisulcatus and Metapenaeopsis lata are reported from the southeastern coast of Korea. P. monodon and P. semisulcatus have been incorrectly known so far as P. bubulus and P. monodon, respectively, in Korea. M. lata is the first record of this species from Korean waters. Morphological diagnoses are given with coloration and distribution for the three species.
