Cryptococcus yarrowii sp. nov., a novel yeast species from Portugal.
A novel species of the basidiomycetous genus Cryptococcus is described as Cr. yarrowii based on the study of an isolate from a decayed mushroom collected in Portugal. DNA-DNA homology with the type strain of the phenotypically similar species Cr. albidus was 10 +/- 2%.
