Sanghuang mushroom is highly valued for its medicinal potential, including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities, and has recently gained significant economic and pharmacological importance. Despite considerable taxonomic revisions within the genus Sanghuangporus, confusion persists in Korea due to the continued use of outdated names such as Phellinus linteus, P. baumii, and Inonotus baumii, as well as inconsistencies in common names. This study aimed to clarify the species diversity of Sanghuangporus in Korea through integrative approaches combining phylogenetic, morphological, and ecological analyses. Using four genetic markers (ITS, nLSU, RPB2, and TEF1), we analyzed 11 dried specimens preserved at the Seoul National University Fungus Collection and 74 fungal strains maintained by the Korean Agricultural Culture Collection. As a result, we identified eight Sanghuangporus species in Korea: S. baumii, S. mongolicus, S. quercicola, S. sanghuang, S. subbaumii, S. vaninii, S. weigelae, and a novel candidate species, Sanghuangporus sp. 1. Among these, S. mongolicus and S. quercicola were newly recorded species for Korea. By providing diagnostic traits and ITS barcode sequences, this study offers a reliable taxonomic framework for the accurate identification of Sanghuangporus species. It also supports future taxonomic studies, cultivar development, and applied research in pharmaceutical and functional bioactive materials.
한국산 복숭아거위벌레속(딱정벌레목: 바구미상과: 주둥이거위벌레과)의 분류학적 재검토를수행한 결과 애복숭아거위벌레(Rhynchites (Rhynchites) fulgidus Faldermann, 1835)를 국내 처음으로 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 한국산 복숭아거위벌레속 2종(애복숭아거위벌레, 복숭아 거위벌레)의 형태학적 재기재를 제공한다. 또한, 한국산 복숭아거위벌레속 종들의 분류학사에 대한 고찰과 2종에 대한 분류 검색표를 제시한다.
한반도 애호랑밑빠진버섯벌레속(Baeocera Erichson, 1845)에 대하여 논의하고 검색표를 제공하였다. 참애호랑밑빠진버섯벌레(Baeocera choi Hoshina and Park, 2011)는 배애호랑밑빠진버섯벌레[Baeocera ventralis (Löbl, 1973)]의 동물이명 임이 밝혀졌다. 이들의 수컷생식기 형질 을 도해하고 근연종과 함께 동정에 유용한 형태형질을 제시한다.
