To elucidate the hemolytic toxicities of Korean basidiomycetes, the cold-water extracts of 46 wild mushrooms were tested for hemolytic activity on mouse erythrocytes. Twelve species including Amanita esculenta, A. griseofarinosa, A. longistriata, A. melleiceps, A. phalloides, A. rubescence, A. spissacea, A. vaginata, Hebeloma crustuliniforme, Lepiota cygnea, Macrolepiota procera, and Oudemansiella platyphylla showed strong hemolytic activities. Of these, A. griseofarinosa and H. crustuliniforme showed no decrease in their hemolytic activity even after five minutes' boiling.

Among the higher fungi which wore collected in the Geong Gi Province and Seoul Korea, nine species, i.e., Mycena haematopoda, Amanita griseofarinosa, Pholiota spectabilis. Pholiota vermiflua, Boletus erythroporus, Russula alutacea, Russula chameleontina, Russula xcampelina and Polyporus sulphureus, were found to be unrecorded species in Korea. The morphological, histological and microchemical characteristics of these fungi were reported.
