A new species of Neosartorya was recovered during investigation of the fungal community in soil samples collected from different locations in Korea; Neosartorya aureola KNU14-7 was isolated for the first time from field soil in Korea and identified based on the internal transcribed spacer region of rDNA and morphological characteristics. The species has not been officially reported from Korea and we report it here with description and figures.
