Abstract

Independent surveys of yeasts associated with lignocellulosic-related materials led to the discovery of a novel yeast species belonging to theCyberlindneraclade (Saccharomycotina, Ascomycota). Analysis of the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit rRNA gene showed that this species is related toC. japonica,C. maesaandC. easanensis. Six isolates were obtained from different sources, including rotting wood, tree bark and sugar cane filter cake in Brazil, frass from white oak in the USA and decayed leaf in Taiwan. A novel species is suggested to accommodate these isolates, for which the nameC. xylosilyticasp. nov. is proposed. The type strain ofC. xylosilyticasp. nov. is NRRL YB-2097T( = CBS 13984T = UFMG-CM-Y347T) and the allotype is UFMG-CM-Y409 ( = CBS 14083). The novel species is heterothallic and complementary mating types are represented by the type and allotype strains. The MycoBank number is MB 811428.
