A new species of Candda has been recovered 40 times from necrotic cactus tissue occurring in widely separated geographic areas. The organism has been named Candida mucilagina because of the extremely slimy, almost watery appearance of its colonies on solid media. Eleven strains were isolated in Baja California Sur, Mexico, where its principal host plant was Stenocereus gummosis (agria), and 29 strains came from rotting cladodes of Opuntia inermis in New South Wales and Queensland, Australia. The base composition of the nuclear deoxyribonucleic acid of C. mucilagina is 43.2 to 44.0 mol% (range of five strains). The type strain of C. mucilagina is UCD-FS&T 76-236C (= ATCC 42174 = CBS 7071). During a survey of yeasts associated with ne- croses of Mexican columnar cacti of the North American Sonoran Desert and opuntia cacti of eastern Australia, we isolated 40 strains of a slimy, asporogenous, multilaterally budding yeast that represents a new species of the genus Candrda sensu Yarrow and Meyer (9). On the isolation medium, the colonies of the new species could be easily recognized by their highly mu- cous, nearly watery appearance, which led us to name it Candida mucilagina sp.nov. The Mex- ican strains were nearly all associated with agria cacti (Stenocereus gummosis (Engelm.) Gibson and Horak), and those from Australia were all isolated from rots in Opuntia inermis de Can- dolle.
