 Description: Growth onYM broth: After 3 days growth at 26℃, the cells are ovoid to ellipsoid, occur singly or in pairs (3-4 × 4-2μm). Budding is unipolar, bipolar or multilateral. Growth onYM agar or malt agar: Streak give rise to convex, circular, mot, smooth cream butyrous colony, presence of carotenoid pigments, no fermentation, no ballistospores. No sexual state is observed from pure culture plated on YM agar or malt agar. Under these conditions, no hyphae or pseudohyphae are formed. Dalmau plate culture on corn meal agar: After 7 days Dalmau plate culture on corn meal agar, neither pseudomycelium nor true mycelium was produced.
