Lampropidae is a relatively small family, comprised of about 100 species in 13 genera, and is generally found in colder, deeper waters (Gerken, 2010). Among the genera, Lamprops Sars, 1863 is represented by 23 species worldwide(WoRMS, 2014). The diagnostic characteristics of the genus Lamprops are as follows: 1) carapace with definite antennal notch; 2) pleon without pleopods; 3) telson with more than three terminal setae (Given, 1964; Gamô, 1967). In the present paper, two newly recorded species belonging to the genus Lamprops were described and illustrated, based on samples collected from the East Sea (Sea of Japan) in Korea. Lamprops carinatus Hart, 1930 and L. pseudosarsi Tsareva and Vassilenko, 1993. To date, only one species belonging to the family Lampropidae, Hemilamprops californicus Zimmer, 1936 was provided from Korea (Lee and Lee, 1998). Therefore, this represents the first record on the genus Lamprops from Korea. New information on the mouthparts of these species is also provided, and the male of L. pseudosarsi is described for the first time on the basis of the specimen from Korean waters. Keys to the Korean genera of the Lampropidae and species of Lamprops are also given. The terminology of the setae follows that used by Watling (1989) and Gerken (2010, 2013).

Remarks. In the original description, only the female of Lamprops pseudosarsi was described (Tsareva and Vassilenko, 1993). Unfortunately, only male specimens were collected in the present study, however, there is no doubt that the specimens belong to L. pseudosarsi due to the following critical characters: 1) carapace bearing two pairs of oblique ridges laterally; 2) dorsal carina of carapace well developed with groove posteriorly; 3) pereonites with transverse medial ridges. However, several differences were found between the collected specimens and the original description by Tsareva and Vassilenko, 1993 (original descriptions in parentheses); 1) dorsal carina of carapace with narrow groove (vs. with rhombic groove); 2) pereonites 1-4 with transverse medial ridges (vs. pereonites 1-3 with transverse medial ridges); 3) telson with one long mesial and two pairs of subequal lateral terminal setae (vs. with one long mesial and two pairs of unequal lateral terminal setae). It is notable that these differences were possibly the result of sexual variation.
