Three Penicillium species have been isolated from insect specimens in Korea; Penicillium sp., P. steckii, and P. polonicum . Penicillium sp. was isolated from Lixus impressiventris, while P. polonicum and Penicillium steckii were isolated from Muljarus japonicas and meloe proscarabaeus, respectively. The identification was based on the morphological characteristics of the fungi and in internal transcribed spacer analysis. This is the first report on the isolation of these three species of penicillium from insects in Korea.
