Abstract

A single strain, CLQCA-10-114, representing a novel yeast species belonging to the genus was isolated from the fruit of an unidentified species of bramble ( sp.), collected from the Maquipucuna cloud forest reserve, near Quito, in Ecuador. Sequence analyses of the D1/D2 domains of the large-subunit rRNA gene and ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region indicated that the novel species is most closely related to the recently described species , isolated from the fruiting body of a mushroom collected in Taiwan, and , a -associated yeast found in Brazil. The name sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate this strain; the type strain is CLQCA-10-114 ( = CBS 12184 = NCYC 3744).
