The nuclear DNA of 28 species (30 strains investigated) of yeasts classified currently or previously in the genus Trichosporon. was analysed for its molar percentage of guanine + cytosine (mol% G + C). This criterion, together with biochemical characteristics, suggested the separation of the organisms studied into two groups. The first group, which appears related to the Ascomycetes, includes thirteen species with a G + C content lower than 50 mol% (34.7-48.8), and lacks urease (except T. margaritiferum). The second group appears related to the Basidiomycetes and includes fifteen species with a G + C content higher than 50 mol% (57-64) and has the ability to hydrolyse urea. A DNA homology experiment with T. beigelii and twelve other species of the second group showed very low values of complementarity with T. beigelii-labeled DNA. All these species must be considered as taxa other than T. beigelii.
