Eurotiales fungi are thought to be distributed worldwide but there is a paucity of information about their occurrence on diverse substrates or hosts and at specific localities. Some of the Eurotiales, including Aspergillus and Penicillium species, produce an array of secondary metabolites of use for agricultural, medicinal, and pharmaceutical applications. Here, we carried out a survey of the Eurotiales in South Korea, focusing on soil, freshwater, and plants (dried persimmon fruits and seeds of Perilla frutescens, known commonly as shiso). We obtained 11 species that-based on morphology, physiology, and multi-locus (ITS, BenA, CaM, and RPB2) phylogenetic analyses-include two new species, Aspergillus ullungdoensis sp. nov. and Penicillium jeongsukae sp. nov., and nine species that were known, but previously not described in South Korea, Aspergillus aculeatinus, Aspergillus aurantiacoflavus, Aspergillus croceiaffinis, Aspergillus pseudoviridinutans, Aspergillus uvarum, Penicillium ferraniaense, Penicillium glaucoroseum, Penicillium sajarovii, and one, Penicillium charlesii, that was isolated from previously unknown host, woodlouse (Porcellio scaber). We believe that biodiversity survey and identifying new species can contribute to set a baseline for future changes in the context of humanitarian crises such as climate change.
曲霉目真菌被认为分布于全球，但关于它们在不同基质、宿主以及特定地点的出现情况，相关信息却很匮乏。一些曲霉目真菌，包括曲霉属和青霉属的物种，能产生一系列可用于农业、医学和制药领域的次生代谢产物。在此，我们对韩国的曲霉目真菌进行了调查，重点关注土壤、淡水和植物（干柿子以及紫苏种子，紫苏俗称荏）。我们获得了11个物种，基于形态学、生理学以及多位点（ITS、BenA、CaM和RPB2）系统发育分析，其中包括两个新物种，即郁陵岛曲霉新种和郑淑青霉新种，以及9个已知但此前在韩国未被描述过的物种，分别是棘孢曲霉、橙黄曲霉、近红曲霉、拟绿核曲霉、葡萄曲霉、费氏青霉、浅绿青霉、萨贾罗夫青霉，还有一个从之前未知宿主潮虫（粗糙卷甲虫）中分离出的查尔斯青霉。我们认为生物多样性调查和新物种鉴定有助于为诸如气候变化等人道主义危机背景下的未来变化设定一个基线。
