Abstract

The genus Kazachstania Zubkova was once introduced as a monotypic genus including Kazachstania viticola Zubkova (1971). Then, a large number of species were accom-modated to the genus. However, the phylogenetic analyses indicated that the genus is extremely diverse, since the species concerned, including Kazachstania viticola, the type species, had quite long branches in the phylogenetic trees. The calculated pair-wise sequence similarities of K. viticola were quite low (89.4 - 94.6%) to the remaining species. The phylogenetic data obtained indicated that the genus Kazachstania is subdivided into several taxonomic homogeneous-natured taxa at the generic level. As a first case, the new genus Vanderwaltomyces was proposed for Kazachstania africana as Vanderwaltomyces africanus.
