Abstract
It has been found that the type species, T. colliculosa, of the form genus Torulopsis constitutes a perfect state forming ascospores.
It is proposed that the same “Torulopsis Lodder et Kreger-Van Rij” based on a new type, be conserved against the earlier homonym “Torulopsis Berlese” which is based on the type T. rosea.
