ABSTRACT=<p>Two hundred and forty-four ustilaginomycetous yeast or yeast-like strains were isolated from the soil, skin of animals or humans and plant materials during the past 20 years. Among them, 203 strains represent 39 known species, whereas 41 strains represent several novel species based on the sequence analyses of the rDNA genes [18S rDNA, Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions, 26S rDNA D1/D2 domain] and three protein genes (<italic>RPB1, RPB2</italic>, and <italic>TEF1</italic>). In this study, one new order, one new family, four new genera, twenty new species, and two new combinations were proposed.
