Botryozyma nematodophila gen. nov., spec. nov. (Candidaceae).

The new genus Botryozyma with a single species, B. nematodophila is proposed for two isolates from nematodes (Panagrellus zymosiphilus) occurring in grapes with sour-rot. The new genus has typical ascomycetous characteristics and, being unable to produce ascospores, is placed in the family Candidaceae.
