Description
Summary:As an effort to explore fungal diversity, fungal survey was undertaken in 2018 in Jangheung, Korea. For the survey, medicinal plant leaves were sampled from Selaginella tamariscina, Serratula coronata ssp. insularis, Scutellaria baicalensis, Scrophularia buergeriana and subjected to fungal isolation. Four unrecorded fungal species, Paraboeremia selaginellae, Colletotrichum camelliae, Alternaria eichhorniae, and Phomopsis capsici were obtained from the survey. This study described their morphological characteristics including colony features formed on media, light microscopic images and molecular characteristics of nucleotide sequences of the ITS and 28S rDNA regions.
