Researchers in Korea discovered two types of fungi from Graphium genus in freshwater rivers and streams. One was identified as Graphium carbonarium, previously unknown in Korea, while the other two isolates represent an entirely new species named Graphium aquaticum. This finding is significant because Graphium fungi were previously thought to live only on wood and in association with insects, making freshwater an unexpected and new habitat for these organisms.

Researchers found two types of fungi called Graphium in freshwater streams in Korea. One type (Graphium carbonarium) had been found before in other countries but never in Korea. The other type is completely new to science and was named Graphium aquaticum because it lives in water. This discovery is surprising because scientists previously thought these fungi only lived on wood and were spread by beetles, not in freshwater environments.
