§1

Description

Candida guilliermondii colonies are flat, moist, smooth, and cream to yellow in color on Sabouraud dextrose agar. It does not grow on the surface when inoculated into Sabouraud broth. When grown on cornmeal-Tween 80 agar at 25 °C for 72 hours, C. guillermondii produces clusters of small blastospores along its pseudohyphae, especially at septal points. Pseudohyphae are short and few in number.
