Trichomonascus apis sp. nov., a heterothallic yeast species from honeycomb

Spencermartinsiella europaea gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family Trichomonascaceae

“…They also predicted that the discovery of novel species with atypical growth reactions could render that key inaccurate. The subsequent description of Trichomonascus apis (Péter et al , 2009b) supported this supposition, because this species cannot be reliably assigned to the genus Trichomonascus with the above mentioned key. However, Spencermartinsiella europaea sp.…”

Two new species of the genus Candida in the Zygoascus clade, Candida lundiana sp. nov. and Candida suthepensis sp. nov., isolated from raw honey in Thailand

“…Some Candida species have been isolated from bees (Brysch-Herzberg 2004;Lachance et al 2001b;Rosa et al 2003) and sugary resources (Csoma and Sipiczki 2008;James et al 2001;Sangorrín et al 2007;Sipiczki 2003;Solieri et al 2006;Stratford et al 2002). Torulopsis magnoliae (=Candida magnoliae) was the most common isolate found in the honeybee, Apis mellifera (Gilliam 1979(Gilliam , 1997Gilliam et al 1974;Péter et al 2009). Attempts to characterize yeast communities associated with bees and their food sources have previously been reported.…”
