Abstract

A previously unrecorded species, Metacordyceps chlamydosporia KNU14-22, was isolated from soil in Korea. Identification of the fungal species was based on morphological and molecular characteristics. This species has not been previously reported in Korea and herein we present data with detailed descriptions and figures.
