Two new species of the genus Cratospila Foerster, 1863 (Braconidae: Alysiinae), Cratospila albosignata sp. nov. and C. longivena sp. nov., are described and illustrated. In addition, the DNA barcode region of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) of both species has been sequenced with three previously described species (C. albifera, C. luteocephala and C. syntoma). Alysia ponerola Papp, 2009 which was recorded from North Korea is transfered in Cratospila (C. ponerola (Papp, 2009) comb. nov.). All species validly recorded from Korea are included in a revised key.
