Genus Cervus Linnaeus, 1758

Two species, C. elaphus and C. nippon , previously inhabited Korea. Both species became extirpated in South Korea and their status in North Korea remains uncertain. A small population of C. nippon from Taiwan became established in Mt. Songni National Park as an invasive species ( Koh et al. 2010a).
