During an investigation of fungi of the order Mucorales from freshwater and sediment samplesin Korea, we isolated six strains, NNIBRFG6649, NNIBRFG6255, NNIBRFG1498, CNUFCYJ13,CNUFC-YR7, and NNIBRFG2739. The morphology and phylogeny of these strains wereanalyzed. Based on the morphological characteristics and molecular data from internal transcribedspacer (ITS) region, the isolates NNIBRFG6649 and NNIBRFG6255 were identified asMucor abundans, and M. aligarensis, respectively. The isolates NNIBRFG1498 and CNUFC-YJ13were identified as M. moelleri, whereas the isolates CNUFC-YR7 and NNIBRFG2739 were identifiedas M. heterogamus. To the best of our knowledge, M. abundans, M. aligarensis, M. moelleri,and M. heterogamus have not yet been reported in Korea.
