To investigate the fungal diversity in Mt. Paekwoon, higher fungi were collected in July, 1991 from the two locations of Seoul National University Forests in Kwangyang-gun, Chonnam Province. A total of 137 fungal species were collected and classified. Following six species were identified as new species unrecorded in Korea. Their morphological and taxonomic features including microscopic characteristics of spores and cystidia were also reported in this paper. Marasmius pulcherripes Peck ; Agaricus purpurellus(Moller) Moller ; Coprinus echinosporus Buller ; Xerocomus nigromaculatus Hongo ; Boletellus shichianus(Teng & Ling) Teng ; Russula kansaiensis Hongo.

Hemicycliophora minora Wu, 1966 and Pratylenchoides ivanovae Ryss, 1980 are newly collected from Korea. Five species of Hemicycliophora and 3 species of Pratylenchoides were reported in Korea and key is given. Two preciously described species, Pratylenchoides utahenis Baldwin, Luc & Bell and Rotylenchus feroxcis Eroshenko were observed under the scanning electron microscope.

Amanita Pers. is a well-known monophyletic mushroom genus with a broad distribution. However, the diversity of Korean Amanita species has been underestimated, and most taxonomic studies conducted in Korea have only investigated their morphological characteristics. This approach is frequently insufficient for correct identification in fungal classification; therefore, we constructed a phylogeny of Amanita subgen. Lepidella in order to understand the phylogenetic placements of 16 Amanita specimens collected in Korea in 2012. The phylogeny constructed using the sequence data of the internal transcribed spacers and the partial large subunit of ribosomal RNA identified nine Amanita species (A. citrina, A. excelsa var. spissa, A. flavipes, A. fritillaria, A. oberwinklerana, A. pallidorosea, A. rubescens, A. subjunquillea, and A. volvata); of these, A. fritillaria, A. oberwinklerana, and A. pallidorosea are new to Korea.

An unrecorded species, Carex rugata Ohwi, was found in Jeollabuk-do and Jeollanam-do. This species is distinguished from Carex breviculmis R. Br., C. mitrata Franch., C. polyschoena H. Lev. & Vaniot, C. genkaiensis Ohwi, C. formosensis H. Lev. & Vaniot and C. kamagariensis K. Okamoto by having achenes with excavated faces. Carex rugata Ohwi was named 'Ju-reum-cheong-sa-cho' in Korean based on its specific epithet. In this study, a description, illustrations and photographs of the species are provided.

Bopyrid isopods collected from 35 localities in Korea were examined. Twelve species in 12 genera were identified and classified onto 7 subfamilies, of which following 8 species are new to Korea : Metaboyrus ovalis Shiino, Bopyrissa pyriforma (shiino), Ione cornuta Spence Bate, Parapenaeonella distincta Shiino, Bopyriodes Hippolytes (Kroyer), Pseudostegias dulicilacuum Markham, Athelges takanoshimensis Ishii and Eophrixus shojii Shiino. Athelges japonicus Shiino is found out to be a junior synonym of a.takanoshimensis Ishii. Eight unrecorded scpecies in Korea are descried with figures. Other two species , Apocepon pulcher Nierstrasz et Brender Brandis and Argeia pugettensis Dana. Are provided with figures.

We isolated endophytic fungal strains from the roots of three medicinal crops, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Angelica gigas, and Cnidium officinale, cultivated at Yeongju, Korea. The fungal strains were identified based on their morphological characteristics and molecular analyses of their internal transcribed spacer, large subunit rDNA, and beta-tubulin regions. Thereby, we identified three previously unrecorded endophytic fungal species, Dactylonectria pauciseptata, Rhizopycnis vagum, and Sistotrema sernanderi, in Korea. In this report, we describe the morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of these three fungal species.

The genus Helina Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 is one of the largest groups belonging to the subfamily Phaoniinae in the family Muscidae, comprising more than 540 species worldwide. In this taxonomic study, the genus Helina was recorded first time from the Korea with following three unrecorded species: H. deleta (Stein, 1914), H. evecta (Harris, 1780), and H. subpubiseta Xue, 1986. Taxonomic information, morphological photographs, and an identification key to the Korean species were provided.

Two newly naturalized species were recorded from Incheon (Youngjong-do) and Ulsan. Among them, Bidens polylepis S.F. Blake (Asteraceae) was widespread and was found in the following locations: Unbuk bridge, Unbuk-dong, Jung-gu in Incheon, and Chuiseosan, Banggi-ri, Samnam-myeon as well as a Saemmul mountain cabin on Jaeaksan, Sangbuk-myeon in Ulju-gun, Ulsan. Bidens polylepis can be distinguished from congeneric species by its larger ray-flowers. The Korean name of Bidens polylepis was newly formulated based on the characteristic of its yellow ray-flowers and on the Korean name of the genus Bidens (Asteraceae). The other species, numerous populations of Saponaria officinalis L. (Caryophyllaceae) were found in two areas in Jeotgae village, Unseo-dong, Jung-gu, Incheon. Saponaria officinalis can be distinguished from congeneric species in the family by two features, shallow calyx teeth and a petal with appendages at the base of the blade.
