Fifteen morphologically different groups of yeasts consisting of Metschnikowia pulcherrima, Trichosporon cutaneum, Kloeckera apiculata, Torulopsis Candida, Tor. glabrata. Tor. apicola, Candida tropicalis, Cand. krusei, Cand. sorbosa, Cand. diversa, Pichia terricola, Pic. membranaefaciens, Hyphopichia burtonii, Rhodotorula graminis and Aureobasidium pullulans were isolated from fresh, fermenting and fermented juice of two varieties of mango. This is the first report on the study of yeast flora of mango and also on the occurrence of Hyp. burtonii on fruits.
