Abstract

Hyphozyma lignicola sp. nov. is a yeast-like hyphomycete isolated from black galls and cankers on trunks of Populus tremuloides and is distributed in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. It differs from previously described species of Hyphozyma by its pattern of assimilation of carbon compounds, by its colonies which darken to brown on some media, production of diffusible orange brown pigments, and by its specific association with cankers and tumour-like stem deformities on trembling aspen. A revised key to the known species of Hyphozyma is provided.
