Abstract
A survey of yeasts found in the alimentary canal of 169 animals was carried out. Representatives of 17 species and 6 genera were isolated but of these only 4 species, Torulopsis pintolopesii, Saccharomyces guttulata, Candida albicans and T. glabrata were considered true intestinal types. C. parapsilosis and C. krusei were classed as intermediates and the rest as transients. The validity of the species T. pintolepesii is considered doubtful.Keywords
