ABSTRACT

This study evaluated macrofungal specimens collected from the Gangwon, Jeonnam, and Chungnam provinces of Korea in 2015~2016. All specimens were identified at the species level using a combination of morphological characteristics and rDNA sequence data. Among them, eight macrofungal species, Coprinopsis romagnesiana, Daldinia loculata, Gymnopus biformis, Gymnopus montagnei, Gymnopus sepiiconicus, Hebeloma danicum, Pholiota limonella, and Russula brevipes, are new records for macromycota in Korea.
