Cryptococcus tephrensis, sp.nov., and Cryptococcus heimaeyensis, sp.nov.; new anamorphic basidiomycetous yeast species from Iceland
Two new species from Iceland are described on the basis of physiological profiles and sequence data from the D2 region of LSU rDNA: Cryptococcus tephrensis (type ICE99-1ToM Y5, ATCC MYA-1765, CBS 8935, GenBank AF317208) and Cryptococcus heimaeyensis (type ICE99-1ToM Y8, ATCC MYA-1759, CBS 8933, GenB...
