Abstract
AbstractInvasive fungal infections caused by non-albicans Candidaspecies are increasingly reported. Recent advances in diagnostic and molecular tools enabled better identification and detection of these emerging pathogenic yeasts. Several of these emerging species belong to theCandida haemuloniispecies complex, which attracted much attention due to the rapid global emergence of its multi-drug resistant memberCandida auris. Here, we describe a new clinically relevant yeast isolated from geographically distinct regions, representing the proposed novel speciesCandida khanbhai, member of theC. haemuloniispecies complex. Moreover, several members of theC. haemuloniispecies complex were observed to be invalidly described, includingCandida aurisandCandida vulturna. Hence, the opportunity was taken to correct this here, formally validating the names of various yeast species.
