These species were genetically distinct from all other currently accepted ascomycetous yeasts, based on sequence divergence in the D1/D2 domains of the large-subunit rDNA and in the small-subunit rDNA. The species occupy basal positions in the Metschnikowiaceae clade. The type strains are Candida bromeliacearum UNESP 00-103T (=CBS 10002T=NRRL Y-27811T) and Candida ubatubensis UNESP 01-247RT (=CBS 10003T=NRRL Y-27812T).", }
