SACCHAROMYCETACEAE

Cryptococcus anginae Clerc & Sartory, C. R. Soc. Biol. 64: 136, 2 figs., 1908. 



Isolated in exudate from sore throat following typhoid fever. Lesions had 

 general appearance of thrush. 



Cells in exudate 8-9/x in diameter, in groups of 6-8 among epithelial cells. 

 On peptone gelatin, at 20° C, ascospores produced abundantly, usually 4 to 

 an ascus, spherical or ovoid (Fig. 68). On malt extract gelatin, asci more 

 elongate, the 4 ascospores being in a row (Fig. 68, 6-8). No chlamydospores 

 on Nageli mineral medium. 



On agar, colony thick, rounded, grayish rose. On carrot (cooked), the 

 same. Colonies, on peptone gelatin, both deep and superficial, the latter 

 slightly grayish white and shining, the former brownish, spherical, surrounded 

 by rays. On malt extract, no pellicle, turbidity clearing in 3 days, sediment 

 thick, glutinous, brownish, having the odor of beer yeast. Sucrose fermented 

 with a pleasant odor resulting. No acetic acid or aldehyde demonstrated. 



Saccharomyces Ferrani Froilano de Mello, Paes & Sousa, Arq. Hig. Pat. 

 Exot. 6: 17-40, 1918. 



Fig. 68. — Saccharomyces anginae. (After Vuillemin & Legrain 1901.) 



Isolated from the pus of large cold abscess in the axilla with metastases. 

 In this pus Avere yeast cells varying from 1-5/x in diameter. Cells spherical, 

 with 1-2 refringent granules, solitaiy or in groups of 2-80 individuals, with 

 pseudomycelium but no true mycelium. Asci numerous, 2-4-spored, ascospores 

 spherical or subreniform. 



Grows on potato only, of the large number of media tried. Colonies 

 ochraceous yellow, with center becoming chocolate colored and margins yel- 

 lowish brown. 



Saccharomyces Hagiwarae Dodge, n. sp. 



Hefe Hagiwara, Jap. Zeitschr. Derm. Urol. 22: 941-980 [77-78], Pis. 19 A- 

 19B, 1922. 



Original lesion followed a bee sting behind the ear, later lesions on arms 

 and axilla. Pathogenic to mouse, not to rabbit. 



Yeast cells spherical or ovoid, 2.8-6.4 x 1.9-5.6/x. On gypsum block after 

 53 hours, asci produced, 2-4-spored. No mycelium figured or described.
