Genus of fungi

Quick Facts Papiliotrema, Scientific classification ...

Papiliotrema is a genus of fungi in the family Rhynchogastremaceae. Filamentous states, where known, form septate basidia with haustorial cells indicating they are parasites of other fungi.[1] Most species are currently known only from their yeast states. More than 20 species have been referred to Papiliotrema.[2][3]

Papiliotrema terrestris is considered to be a ubiquitous yeast in the soil.[4] Papiliotrema laurentii is a rare human pathogen.[5]
