We reported an unrecorded species from Korean flora, Sedum makinoi found at Mt. Sung-am, Sajung-dong, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. The species is distinguished from other Korean species of section Seda-genuina by flat and orbicular leaves and opposite phyllotaxy on flowering shoots. Description and illustration of the species and photos of the habitat are provided.

One unrecorded species of Suaeda is found from the western and southern coast of Korea. The morphological characteristics and habitat of the plant are described. The species is distinguished from the other Korean species in the genus by its thin and broad leaves and the stellate shape of fruits.

The unrecorded plant, Aster hispidus var. leptocladus (Compositae), was reported from Mt. Palgong-san, Daegu-si, Korea and was named as 'Gin-ssuk-bu-jaeng-i' after its slender leaves. It is distinguished from var. hispidus by having glabrous linear cauline leaves with acute apex, small heads and involucre, short pappus in disc florets. It had been considered as Japanese endemic plant especially adapted to serpentine area.

While conducting a floristic study of Korean hepatics, we discovered two unrecorded species, which were collected from wind holes near the Donggang River, Korea. Mannia fragrans (Balb.) Frye & L. Clark and Mannia androgyna (L.) A. Evans are hereby reported for the first time in Korea. M. androgyna is characterized by pale grayish oil bodies in both the aerenchyma and basal tissue, and saccate spores with a conspicuous proximal disc. M. fragrans is characterized by a gynoecial segment with a whitish apical brush of scales, a commonly aromatic smell, and areolate spores with a conspicuous proximal disc. Two unrecorded species are described and illustrated based on Korean material.

A study searching for unrecorded and taxonomically undescribed indigenous species has been conducted since 2006. Samples were collected from many sites in coastal waters and offshore in Korea as well as around Jeju Island. Since 2008 we have found 13 unrecorded species belonging to family Diplopsaliaceae, Heterocapsaceae, Kolkwitziellaceae, Protoperidiniaceae and Thoracosphaeraceae. The species are as follows, Preperidinium meunieri (2014), Heterocapsa ovata (2015), H. pseudotriquetra (2015), Diplopsalis lenticula (2008), Protoperidinium abei (2009), P. diabolus var. longipes (2010), P. depressum (synonym: P. parallelum (2008)), P. latispinum (2016), P. punctulatum (2010), P. solidicorne (synonym: P. spinosum (2010)), P. subpyriforme (2010), P. pacificum (2013), Scrippsiella hexapraecingula (2009) (note; The numbers in parenthesis refer to the year that the species was reported as unrecorded indigenous species by National Institute of Biological Resources, NIBR hereafter). Among these, 5 species were described as newly recorded species in Korean waters, and 8 were re-described in this study.

In this study, we described and illustrated an unrecorded species from the Korean flora, Sciaphila nana Blume, which is included in the order Pandanales and the family Triuridaceae. This taxon was found at Mul Oreum in Namwon-eup, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province for the first time in Korea. The order Pandanales can be distinguished from the order Liliales by the anomocytic or tetracytic stomata and syncarpous or apocarpous gynoecia of the Pandanales. The family Triuridaceae and the other four taxa in the Pandanales, Cyclanthaceae, Pandanaceae, Stemonaceae, and Velloziaceae, are easily distinguished because the Triuridaceae are microtrophic herbs with scaly leaves. S. nana has a subulate style with a glabrous apex, ovate to narrow ovate leaves and bracts, male perianth segments with a knob-like structure at the apex, and a dimorphic perianth. Therefore, it is easily distinguished from S. tenella, S. multiflora, S. secundiflora, S. thaidanica, S. ramosa, and S. arfakiana.

Two unrecorded marine nematode species, belonging to genus Paracanthonchus Micoletzky, 1924, are described on the basis of the specimens collected from rocky intertidal seagrass bed on the eastern coast of Korea. Paracanthonchus macrodon (Ditlevsen, 1918) is characterized by presence of cuticular differentiation, strongly dilated gubernaculum with numerous cusps, three post-cloacal setae, and arrangement of six (4+2) precloacal supplement. Paracanthonchus kamui Kito, 1981 is distinguished from other species of the genus by having the 4.25 turns amphideal fovea, six tubular supplement, rib-shaped gubernaculums with proximally hook-shaped and distally broaden. In this study, we provide taxonomic description and illustration of two unrecorded species of the genus Paracanthonchus by differential interference contrast microscopy. This is the first report on the species of the genus Paracanthonchus from Korea.

A total of 149 species and 209 strains of Korean Aphyllophorales in Seoul National University Fungus Collection (SFC) were analyzed by taxonomic and phylogenetic methods. Among those examined fungal specimens, 9 genera Abundisporus, Antrodiella, Cyphellopsis, Dendrothele, Dichomitus, Laxitextum, Piloderma, Skeletocutis and Tubulicrinis, and 23 species, Abundisporus fuscopurpureus, Antrodiella semisupina, Auriporia pileata, Cantharellus subalbidus, Clavulina cinerea, Cyphellopsis confusa, Dendrothele acerina, Dichomitus campestris, Haplotrichum aureum, Heterobasidion annosum, Hyphoderma argillaceum, Hyphodontia tropica, Inonotus dryophilus, Ischnoderma benzoinum, Laxitextum bicolor, Phanerochaete radicata, Phellinus lonicericala, Piloderma byssinum, Skeletocutis nivea, Tomentella terrestris, Trametes elegans, Trametes tenuis, and Tubulicrinis accedens were confirmed as new to Korea and registered here with descriptions.

More than 40 samples of the genus Cordyceps were collected and investigated. Among them, six species were confirmed as unrecorded ones in Korea. Unrecorded species were Cordyceps alboperitheciata, Cordyceps discoideocapitata, Cordyceps intermedia, Cordyceps nigrella, Cordyceps roseostromata and Cordyceps scarabaeicola.

We reported an unrecorded species of the genus Allium (Alliaceae) which is growing along riversides in the central part of Korean peninsula. A. longistylum Baker, has been known to distribute only in China. The new common name, 'Gang-bu-chu', was given considering the habitat characteristics such as growing riversides in Korea. In this study, we described morphological characters, and provided illustrations as well as photographs of the habitat.
