Abstract
A new species ofPichia has been described.Pichia angophorae sp.n. was the only yeast present in an exudate ofAngophora costata collected near North Ryde, N. S. W., Australia. The new species exists in both the homo- and heterothallic state. Heterothallic mating types have been isolated as segregants from originally homothallic cultures.
