“…In addition, identical ITS sequence data also document the presence, in South Korea, of the recently described
C. anzutake from Japan, a species belonging to subgenus
Cantharellus and based on a 100 base pair deletion in the internal transcribed spacer 1 (
ITS1 ) of the rDNA (
Ogawa et al 2018 ). Obtained
tef -1 sequence data from all of our recent collections of chanterelles in South Korea could not confirm the presence of any of the European or North American
Cantharellus previously reported from South Korea ( Park and Lee 1991 ;
Kim 2004 ;
Kim et al 2006 ; Lee 2011 ) nor any of the chanterelles already described from India ( Das et al 2015 ; Kumari et al 2011 ,
2013 ), neighbouring China (
Shao et al 2011 ,
2014 ,
2016a , b ;
Tian et al 2012 ;
An et al 2017 ), Japan ( Suhara and Kurogi 2015 ;
Ogawa et al 2018 ) or Malaysia ( Corner 1966 ; Eyssartier et al 2009 )…”
