title: Kloeckera apis st. nov.; the imperfect state of Hanseniaspora guilliermondii Pijper.
abstract: K. apiculata var. apis (nom. nud.) was found to be the imperfect state of H. guilliermondii Pijper by a high degree of DNA reassociation. The name is validated and raised to species rank, K. apis Lavie ex Smith, Simione and Meyer. K. apis and H. guilliermondii could be distinguished from H. uvarum and H. valbyensis by a low DNA reassociation and by growth at 37 C.
