A dark septate endophytic fungal strain 13E043 was isolated from the needle leaves of Thuja koraiensis from a forest in Korea. Morphological characteristics of conidia and phialids. Along with a molecular phylogenetic analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer region of rDNA, the isolate was identified as Phialocephala piceae (also known as Phaeomollisia piceae). This is the first report of a dark septate endophyte isolated from the foliage of conifer trees in Korea.
