“…infirmo-miniata, because of its pale orange color and lack of assimilation of galactose. HASEGAWA and BANNO (8) elevated it again to the status of species, Rhodotorula infirmominiata, on the basis of its low optimum temperature (20C) for growth, the production of starch, and the requirement of biotin. PHAFF and FELL (9) provisionally placed it in Cryptococcus, for convenience in identification, as Cryptococcus infirmo-miniatus, and they anticipated that, because of the presence of thick-walled teliospore-like cells, the species would prove to follow a sexual cycle and could be placed among the basidiomycetous yeasts.…”

The morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics, and the chemotaxonomic data of Rhodosporidium infirmominiatum strains indicate a close relationship to the strains of the genus Cystofilobasidium in the Filobasidiaceae. Therefore, Rhodosporidium infirmominiatum is reclassified in the chemotaxonomically defined genus Cystofilobasidium, as Cystofilobasidium infirmominiatum (Fell, Hunter et Tallman) Hamamoto, Sugiyama et Komagata comb. nov. which includes its anamorph taxa. Interrelations among Rhodosporidium, Rhodotorula, Cystofilobasidium, Mrakia, and Leucosporidium are discussed.Recently, there have been many polyphasic investigations from morphology to chemotaxonomy regarding the genera Rhodosporidium, Rhodotorula, and Cystofilobasidium (1-5). As a result, it becomes clear that Rhodosporidium infirmominiatum is different from other species of the genus Rhodosporidium and similar to the species of the genus Cystofilobasidium in its morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics.In this paper, we present the DNA-DNA hybridization between Rhodosporidium infirmominiatum and the strains of the genus Cystofilobasidium to clarify relationships among them, and propose that Rhodosporidium infirmominiatum be transferred to the genus Cyst ofilobasidium. And we discuss the interrelations among the genera Rhodosporidium, Rhodotorula, Cystofilobasidium, Mrakia, and Leucosporidium.

“…One strain, A-26, was isolated from seawater sample at Station A. Morphological and physiological characteristics of the isolate resemble these of Rh. macerans (11,12) and Torula infirmo-miniatus (13,14). PHAFF and FELL (15) transferred both species from the genus Rhodotorula to the genus Cryptococcus on the basis of its good growth on Inositol and its ability to produce starch.…”

Seven marine yeasts were isolated from seawater (from 0.3 and 2.0 m depth) and sediment samples (from 5.5 m depth) in Aburatsubo Inlet of the Miura Peninsula, Japan. These yeasts were identified as Debaryomyces hansenii (two strains), Torulopsis candida (two strains), Rhodotorula rubra, Rh. marina, and Cryptococcus infirmo-miniatus.Previously, ecological survey was made on yeasts in the Pacific Ocean and studies on the physiological properties of marine yeasts with reference to the physico-chemical properties of seawater, such as high salinity, temperature, pH, and hydrostatic pressure (1, 2). In the studies on physiological properties of yeasts, both yeasts which were isolated from open sea and coast area were used suspecting there might be some difference in their properties reflecting the difference in environmental factors of their source. The results on the identification of the oceanic yeasts from the Pacific Ocean were also given in a separate paper (3).The present paper reports the results of identification studies on the yeasts isolated from seawater and sediment in Aburatsubo Inlet of the Miura Peninsula, Japan. MATERIALS AND METHODSSeawater samples (from 0.3 to 2.0 m depth) and sediment (from 5.5 m depth) were collected at Stations A and B (Fig.
