RESUMO

Two strains of an undescribed, soil-borne species of the genus Myxozyma were recovered. They differ from other accepted species of this genus in their carbon assimilation pattern, mol% G+C and low extent of DNA complementary. A description of the new species, Myxozyma neotropica, and a key to the species accepted in the genus are given.
