Myelochroa (Asahina) Elix & Hale is a common foliose lichen genus found on the Korean Peninsula. Since it was first recorded nearly two decades ago, no detailed taxonomic or revisionary study of the genus has been conducted. Thus, the current study was conducted to carry out a detailed taxonomic and revisionary study of Myelochroa in South Korea. This study was based on specimens deposited in the Korean Lichen Research Institute (KoLRI). Detailed taxonomic studies and a literature review confirmed the presence of twelve species of Myelochroa from S. Korea, including one new record, Myelochroa xantholepis (Mont. & Bosch) Elix & Hale. Descriptions of each species with their morphological, anatomical and chemical characters together with a key to all known Myelochroa species are presented.
髓色衣属（旭日衣属，Asahina）是在朝鲜半岛发现的一种常见的叶状地衣属。自近二十年前首次被记录以来，尚未对该属进行过详细的分类学或修订研究。因此，开展了本研究以对韩国的髓色衣属进行详细的分类学和修订研究。本研究基于保存在韩国地衣研究所（KoLRI）的标本。详细的分类学研究和文献综述证实了来自韩国的12种髓色衣属物种的存在，包括一个新记录种，黄斑髓色衣（Myelochroa xantholepis (Mont. & Bosch) Elix & Hale）。文中给出了每个物种的形态、解剖和化学特征描述以及所有已知髓色衣属物种的检索表。
