As a part of studies on the fungal flora of Korea, authors have collected over 60 higher fungi specimens during summer season in 1993 in Mt. Hungjung which was located in eastern part of Korea. Among them two genera are new to Korea: Neobulgaria Petrak and Melastiza Boudier. Following five species are recorded for the first time in Korea: Psilocybe xeroderma Huijsm, Galerina vittaeformis (Fr.) Singer var. vittaeformis f. vittaeformis (Fr.) Singer, Gyromitra infula (Schaeffer ex Fries) Quelet, Neobulgaria pura (Fries) Petrak and Melastiza chateri (W. G. Smith) Boudier, for which Korean common names are designated in this present paper.
