ABSTRACT

A re-study was conducted based on morphological characters of 39 specimens known as Mycena stylobates, collected from 33 areas, Mt. Chiack, Kangwon-do, etc. from 1988 to 2015 and deposited in the Herbarium Conservation Center of the National Institute of Agricultural Sciences (HCCN). All specimens cited here were confirmed as a new to science, and designated as "Mycena yangsupensiae" which was described and illustrated in detail. Mycelial growth of four cultures from the fruiting bodies of Mycena sp. (KACC54181, KACC54182, KACC54183, and KACC54184) was high on the potato dextrose agar (PDA), at 25 oC. These four taxa were confirmed as the same species, Mycena yangsupensiae, by the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequencing analysis. All collections cited here are deposited in HCCN, Suwon.
