200 MEDICAL MYCOLOGY 



PARENDOMYCES 



Parendomyces Queyrat So Laroche, Bull. Mem. Soc. Med. Hop. Paris, III, 28: 111-136, 

 1909. 



Type species: Parendomyces albus Queyrat & Laroche. 



Colony creamy, mycelium scanty, limited to short chains in liquid media, cells ellipsoid; 

 chlamydospores abundant; ascospores not seen. Pellicle formation rare, rings more common 

 on liquid media; gelatin not liquefied; milk coagulated. 



PARASACCHAROMYCES 



Parasaccharomyces Beurmann & Gougerot, Tribune Med. 42: 502, 1909. 



The type species is Parasaccharomyces Samhergeri Beurmann «fc Gougerot based upon 

 Pseudosaccharomyces Bussei Bamberger, Sbornik MinicJcy 5: 466-485, PL 6, 1904. 



Colony creamy, hyphae straight, long; yeast cells ellipsoid thick- walled ; ascospores not 

 seen. No pellicle but ring with aerial hyphae; gelatin liquefied; glucose fermented. 



PSEUDOMONILIA 



Pseiodomonilia Geiger, Centralbl. Bakt. II, 27: 97-149, S pis., 4 figs., 1910. 



No type mentioned, four species described as new. Since Ps. cartilaginosa and Ps. 

 mesenterica are mentioned as differing in some respects, they may not be considered as type. 

 Consequently we have to choose between Ps. albomarginata and Ps. rubescens, both of which 

 are about equally eligible. Since Ps. rubescens is the only distinctly colored species, it seems 

 wise to consider Ps. albomarginata as the type. 



Cell shape variable in young cultures, sprout cells in old cultures. More or less branched 

 mycelium without true septa develop from the sprout cells. Giant cells common in old cultures. 

 Strong surface growth, very little deposit. Giant colony similar to MonilM Candida, formation 

 of shaggy tufts. No ascospores. No alcoholic fermentation, sugars variously assimilated. 



Separated from Monilia which he typifies by M. Candida. 



ENANTIOTHAMNUS 



Enantiothamnus Pinoy apud Brault & Masselot, Ann. Derm. Syphiligr. V, 2: 592-602, 

 1911. 



The type species is Enantiothamnus Braulti. 



Pinoy has described and figured this genus very well. It has many of the characters 

 which Langeron & Talice ascribe to Blastodendrion, but it is probably a synonym of 

 syringospora (see p. 277). 



PROTEOMYCES 



Proteomyces Moses & Vianna, Mem. Inst. Oswaldo Cruz 5: 192, Pis. 14-18, Fig. 2, 1913. 



The type species is Proteomyces infestans Moses & Vianna. 



Yeast cells pyriform, germinating by germ tubes which become septate and produce 

 thick-walled chlamydospores [or arthrospores] . These in turn germinate by hyphae which are 

 highly developed; colonies powdery in the center, furrowed; pellicle formed; gelatin liquefied, 

 milk clotted; no fermentation.
