ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Yeasts had men counts of above 10 (6) CFU/gin the fecal pellets of small mammals from tropical forest fragments. Most of the 55 species isolated werefermentative ascomycetes, with the most frequent being Debaryomyces hansenii, Pichia membranifaciens and Issatchenkia orientalis, whereas Rhodotorula mucilaginosa was the most frequent yeast of basidiomycetous affinity
