Abstract
The diplopod genus Epanerchodus Attems, 1901 appears to be represented in the Korean Peninsula by eight species, i.e. E. koreanus Verhoeff, 1937, E. kimi Murakami & Paik, 1968, E. clavisetosus Murakami & Paik, 1968, E. polymorphus Mikhaljova & Golovatch, 1981, E. beroni Mikhaljova & Kim, 1993, E. gangwonus Mikhaljova & Lim, 2001, E. multiprocessus Mikhaljova, 2001, and E. bacilliferus sp. n. A description of E. bacilliferus sp. n. is presented. All currently known Epanerchodus species from Korea are keyed, including the new species.References
