3DE5FD4BC68A53809EA09CB64D12D347.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet foliicola refers to the ex-type strain isolated from a leaf.	en	Wang, Peng, Chai, Chun-Yue, Niu, Qiu-Hong, Hui, Feng-Li (2025): Two new species of Chionosphaera and Kurtzmanomyces (Chionosphaeraceae, Agaricostilbomycetes) isolated from China.

3DE5FD4BC68A53809EA09CB64D12D347.taxon	description	Description. On YM agar after 7 days at 25 ° C, the streak culture is pale orange tough, smooth and glossy with an entire margin. In YM broth after 3 days at 25 ° C, cells are ellipsoidal to cylindrical (2.7 – 6.0 × 4.1 – 10.5 µm) and occur singly or in pairs. Budding is polar through minute stalks, normally one to two per cell. After a month in YM broth at 20 ° C, a sediment is formed, but no ring and pellicle are observed. After 2 weeks in Dalmau plate culture on CMA at 20 ° C, hyphae were observed. Sexual structures are not observed on PDA, CMA or V 8 agar at 17 ° C. Ballistoconidia are not produced. Sugar fermentation is absent. The following carbon sources are assimilated: glucose, inulin (delayed), sucrose, D-galactose (delayed), lactose (weak and delayed), trehalose, maltose, melezitose, methyl α-D-glucoside (delayed), cellobiose, salicin (weak), L-sorbose (weak and delayed), L-rhamnose (weak and delayed), D-xylose (weak and delayed), L-arabinose (weak and delayed), D-arabinose (weak), 5 - keto-D-gluconate, ethanol (weak), glycerol (weak and delayed), ribitol (weak), galactitol, D-mannitol, D-glucitol (weak and delayed), DL-lactate (weak and delayed), succinate, citrate (weak and delayed), and d-glucono- 1, 5 - lactone. Raffinose, melibiose, d-ribose, methanol, erythritol, myo - inositol, D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, 2 - keto-d-gluconate, and D-glucuronate are not assimilated. L-Lysine is assimilated as sole nitrogen sources. Nitrate, nitrite, ethylamine, and cadaverine are not assimilated. Growth is observed at 30 ° C, but not at 35 ° C. Growth in the presence of 0.01 % cycloheximide, 10 % NaCl plus 5 % glucose as well as 1 % acetic acid is negative. Growth in the vitamin-free medium is positive. Growth on 50 % (w / w) glucose-yeast extract agar is negative. There is no hydrolysis of urea and no starch formation. The DBB reaction is positive.	en	Wang, Peng, Chai, Chun-Yue, Niu, Qiu-Hong, Hui, Feng-Li (2025): Two new species of Chionosphaera and Kurtzmanomyces (Chionosphaeraceae, Agaricostilbomycetes) isolated from China.

583A6DD5B9675C6DBABF99BDF35E3D08.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet guiyangensis refers to the geographic origin of the ex-type strain, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province.	en	Wang, Peng, Chai, Chun-Yue, Niu, Qiu-Hong, Hui, Feng-Li (2025): Two new species of Chionosphaera and Kurtzmanomyces (Chionosphaeraceae, Agaricostilbomycetes) isolated from China.

583A6DD5B9675C6DBABF99BDF35E3D08.taxon	description	Description. On YM agar after 7 days at 20 ° C, streak cultures are pale orange, smooth and butyrous, and the margin is entire. In YM broth after 3 days at 20 ° C, cells are spherical to ovoid (3.4 – 4.7 × 4.5 – 6.8 µm) and occur singly or in pairs. The conidiogenous stalks, normally one to three per cell, are short, 0.4 – 1.0 µm. After a month in YM broth at 17 ° C, a sediment and a ring are formed, but no pellicle is observed. After 7 days in Dalmau plate culture on CMA at 17 ° C, pseudohyphae are absent. Sexual structures are not observed on PDA, CMA or V 8 agar at 17 ° C. Ballistoconidia are not produced. Glucose fermentation is absent. The following carbon sources are assimilated: glucose, inulin, sucrose, trehalose, melezitose, salicin, L-arabinose, D-arabinose, 5 - keto-D-gluconate, D-ribose, ethanol, ribitol, galactitol, D-mannitol, D-glucitol, and succinate. Raffinose, melibiose, D-galactose, lactose, maltose, methyl α-D-glucoside, cellobiose, L-sorbose, L-rhamnose, D-xylose, methanol, glycerol, erythritol, myo - inositol, DL-lactate, citrate, D-glucuronate, D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, 2 - keto-D-gluconate, and D-glucono- 1, 5 - lactone are not assimilated. Nitrate and nitrite are weakly assimilated as sole nitrogen sources. Ethylamine, l-lysine, and cadaverine are not assimilated. Growth is observed at 25 ° C, but not at 30 ° C. Growth in the presence of 0.01 % cycloheximide, 10 % NaCl plus 5 % glucose as well as 1 % acetic acid is negative. Growth in the vitamin-free medium is absent. Growth on 50 % (w / w) glucose-yeast extract agar is positive. Starch-like compounds are not synthesized. Diazonium blue B reactions is positive.	en	Wang, Peng, Chai, Chun-Yue, Niu, Qiu-Hong, Hui, Feng-Li (2025): Two new species of Chionosphaera and Kurtzmanomyces (Chionosphaeraceae, Agaricostilbomycetes) isolated from China.
