title: Recognition of the basidiomycetous yeast Sporobolomyces ruberrimus sp. nov. as a distinct species based on molecular and morphological analyses.
abstract: Sporobolomyces ruberrimus Yamasaki and Fujii nom. inval. is established as a distinct species by ribosomal-DNA base composition in the D1, D2 and ITS regions and by morphology. A Latin description is given to validate the name with CBS 7500 as the type strain.
