Abstract

Two strains of genus , representing a novel anamorphic yeast species, were isolated from two samples of sp. collected in Thailand. Analysis of the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit (LSU) rRNA gene showed that the two strains differed by 27–42 nucleotide substitutions in the D1/D2 domains of the LSU rRNA gene and 7–34 nucleotide substitutions in the ITS region of a group of related species, CBS 11430, JCM 10142, ATCC MYA-4329, SD5S01 and NYNU 167162. Phylogenetic analysis based on the concatenated sequences of the ITS and the D1/D2 domains of the LSU rRNA gene showed that the two strains were placed in the clade and clearly separated from other recognized species of the genus. Therefore, the two strains were assigned as a novel species of the genus , for which we propose the name f.a., sp. nov. The holotype is TBRC 16043 (=DMKU-BP19) and the isotype is PYCC 9354. The MycoBank number of the novel species is MB 846490.
