Abstract

Reniforma strues gen. et sp. nov. was isolated from the biological film of a primary wastewater treatment plant in Morgantown, West Virginia. It produced budding kidney-shaped somatic cells with a flat base circumscribed by a brim. Sexual reproduction was not detected. Reniforma strues did not ferment sugars and assimilation was limited to a small number of carbon compounds; nitrate was not assimilated. The cell wall, urease, and the diazonium blue B reactions were those of a basidiomycetous yeast.
