The genus Trichoferus Wollaston, 1854 (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Cerambycinae) in Korea is reviewed. The synonymy of Trichoferus flavopubescens Kolbe, 1886 with Trichoferus campestris (Faldermann, 1835) is reconfirmed herein, resolving their taxonomic confusion. Two species of the genus are recognized in Korea: T. campestris and Trichoferus semipunctatus Holzschuh, 2003. The latter species is newly recognized in Korea. Photographs of habitus and male genitalia of two Korean Trichoferus species are provided.
