Abstract
The genus of Biscogniauxia, well known wood degrading fungi, is a member of the Xylariales, which has woody to carbonaceous, brown to dark brown stromata. Daldinia concentrica and Biscogniauxia sp. isolated from heavily decayed hardwood, are precisely described under light microscopic and scanning electron microscopic level. Daldinia concentrica will be the first ultrastructural description in Korea. The unidentified species collected, having small size of ascospores $11.4\;15.6{\times}9.6\;12.0{\mu}m$ with full germ slit, are taxono-mically compared with similar species found in Korea.
