Two yeast strains were isolated from a bumblebee and bumblebee honey. The strains were almost identical in their D1/D2 domain of the large-subunit rDNA and their physiological abilities. In both respects the strains resembled Wickerhamiella domercqiae. On the basis of these data, it is proposed that the strains represent a novel species with the name Candida bombiphila sp. nov. The type strain is CBS 9712T (=NRRL Y-27640T=MH268T).
The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the sequences reported in this paper are AJ620185 and AJ620186.
