Abstract
In total, 13 taxa of Marasmius sect. Sicci have so far been recorded in the Republic of Korea. Five of them (M. crinipes, M. koreanus, M. occultatiformis, M. rhodopurpureus, and M. subtangerinus) are here described as new taxa. Descriptions of their macro- and microscopic features with a discussion on similar taxa are given. Their taxonomic position was confirmed using DNA studies. A key to their identification is also provided.
