The genus (Hypocreaceae, Ascomycota) consists of globally distributed fungi. Among them, , one of the most commonly collected species, had been known as a polyphyletic or aggregate species. However, a total of 19 species were determined from the polyphyletic groups of . Thus, we explored Korean "" specimens that were collected in 2013-2014. These specimens were re-examined based on a recent study with translate elongation factor 1-alpha (EF1α) sequences to reveal cryptic species in Korea. As a result, four different species, , and , were identified. Except , the other three species have not been reported in Korea. In this work, we describe these species and provide figures.
