Abstract

Seven strains representing two novel yeast species were isolated from rotting wood in Henan and Yunnan Provinces, PR China. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit (LSU) rRNA gene revealed that these two species are members of the genus , although the formation of ascospores was not observed. f.a., sp. nov. (type strain NYNU 167139=CICC 33170=CBS 14699) formed a clade with and , from which it differed by 10–16 substitutions in the D1/D2 domain. The ITS sequences of sp. nov. differed by 27 substitutions from those of the type strain of . The most closely related species with a validly published name to f.a., sp. nov. (type strain NYNU 167162=CICC 33171=CBS 14700) was , but this differed by 14 substitutions in the D1/D2 domain and by 15 substitutions in the ITS region.
