A novel species of the genus Cryptococcus, isolated from dead needles of Pinus sylvestris, was identified using mycocinotyping and rDNA sequence data. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the novel species was located in the Kwoniella clade of the Tremellales and was closely related to Cryptococcus dejecticola. The type strain of the novel species, Cryptococcus pinus sp. nov., is VKM Y-2958T (=CBS 10737T).

Abbreviations: LSU, large subunit

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the D1/D2 region and ITS region of the rDNA gene of Cryptococcus pinus sp. nov. are EF672245 and EF672246, respectively.

A phylogenetic tree of Cryptococcus pinus sp. nov. and closely related species based on the alignment of ITS sequences is available as a supplementary figure with the online version of this paper.
