Twenty-four yeast strains were isolated from ephemeral flowers of Ipomoea spp. and Datura sp. and their associated insects in the Galápagos Archipelago, Ecuador, and from Ipomoea spp. and associated insects in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia. Sequences of the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit rRNA gene indicated that these strains belong to a novel yeast species of the Kodamaea clade, although the formation of ascospores was not observed. The closest relative is Candida restingae. The human-mediated dispersion of this species by transpacific contacts in ancient times is suggested. The name Kodamaea transpacifica f.a., sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate these isolates. The type strain is CLQCA-24i-070(T) ( = CBS 12823(T) = NCYC 3852(T)); MycoBank number MB 803609.
从厄瓜多尔加拉帕戈斯群岛的 fleeting 花和 associated 昆虫、马来西亚金马仑高原的 fleeting 花和 associated 昆虫中分离到 24 株酵母菌株。这些菌株的大亚基 rRNA 基因 D1/D2 区序列表明它们属于 Kodamaea 分支的一个新型酵母种,尽管未观察到子囊孢子的形成。最接近的亲缘种是 Candida restingae。推测该种是人类通过古代跨太平洋接触传播的。提议采用 Kodamaea transpacifica f.a., sp. nov. 这个名称来容纳这些分离株。模式株为 CLQCA-24i-070(T)( = CBS 12823(T) = NCYC 3852(T));MycoBank 编号 MB 803609。
