Abstract
Genetic hybridization, molecular karyotyping and UP-PCR analysis showe d chat the taxonomic complex Hansenula polymorpha DE MORAIS et MAIA co nsists of three biological sibling species. H. angusta TEUNISSON et al . (= Pichia angusta (TEUNISSON et al.) KURTZMAN) is not synonymous wit h H. polymorpha and must be reinstated as a separate species. The thir d sibling species is apparently a new taxon associated with Opuntia ca cti. The sibling species are able to cross with each other but their i nterspecific hybrids are sterile.
