Abstract: The collection of diplopods from Korea, the Russian Far East, and China in the Hungarian Natural History Museum appears to contain altogether 16 identifiable genera and 22 species. One genus and five species of them are described here as new to science: Koreadesmus gen. n., Koreadesmus proprius sp. n., Tokyosoma hallum sp. n., Ansiulus aberrans sp. n., Skleroprotopus chollus sp. n., Skleroprotopus costatus sp. n., One species (Orientyla dahurica (Gerstfeldt, 1859)) is new to the fauna of Korea. Remarks are provided for all species studied, including notes on the variation of both Anaulaciulus golovatchi Mikhaljova, 1982, and Skleroprotopus ramuliferus Lim et Mikhaljova, 2001.
