ABSTRACT

In this study, among the wild mushrooms collected on Jeju Island for the recently 9 years, 5 species are newly reported to Korea. They are identified as Ramariopsis subtilis, Coltriciella pusilla, Lactifluus ochrogalactus, Microstoma insititium and Morchella semilibera based on macromorphological and microscopic observation. In addition, Lactifluus ochrogalactus and Microstoma insititia were re-identified by analysis of internal transcribed spacer of ribosomal DNA.
