Soil microfungi of the paddy fields in Korea [R.] were isolated by the dilution plate method from soil samples of two selected sites 14 species among 30 species identified were undescribed fungi in Korea [R.]. Among them, 7 species of Ascomycetous fungi were described in this paper as new to Korea [R.]. Species of the genus Talaromyces were found to be dominant in paddy field soils and they consisted of Talaromyces flavus var. flavus. T. panasenkoi. T. stipitatus and T. tranchyspermus. Special attention was paid on the predominant occurence of Westerdykells multispora which produced globose to subglobose pseudothecia containing 32 spored asci with multiseptate, cylindrical ascospores. A cellulose decomposing ascomycete, Chaetomium globosum, was also found which produce black, ostiolate perithecia furnished with numerous, wavy to undulate terminal hairs. They contain evanescent, clubshaped, 8 spored asci with lemon-shaped, olive brown ascospores. Another ascomycte, Emericellopsis terricola with Acremonium anamorph, was isolated from two sites
