Among them, nodal-line or nodal-ring semimetals have attracted attention for their unique one-dimensional band contact in momentum space and resulting nontrivial quantum phenomena. By field angular resolved magnetotransport measurements and theoretical calculations, we show that pressurized black phosphorus (BP) is an ideal nodal-ring semimetal with weak spin-orbit coupling, which has a sole and carrier density-tunable nodal ring isolated from other trivial bands. We also revealed that the large magnetoresistance effect and its field-angular dependence in semimetallic BP are due to highly anisotropic relaxation time. Our results establish pressurized BP as an elemental model material for exploring nontrivial quantum properties unique to the topological nodal ring. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=AkibaKazuto en-aut-sei=Akiba en-aut-mei=Kazuto kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=AkahamaYuichi en-aut-sei=Akahama en-aut-mei=Yuichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TokunagaMasashi en-aut-sei=Tokunaga en-aut-mei=Masashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KobayashiTatsuo C. en-aut-sei=Kobayashi en-aut-mei=Tatsuo C. kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Graduate School of Science, University of Hyogo kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=The Institute for Solid State Physics, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= END
