Two new species of Marasmius sect. Sicci are described. Marasmius orientalis, which is characterized by having a pileipellis with well-developed setoid broom cells and setae, caulosetae present, belongs to series Spinulosi. Marasmius strobiluriformis has dimorphic cheilocystidia and cylindrical to subfusoid caulocystidia and belongs to ser. Atrorubentes.
