The taxonomic value of aspirin sensitive arachidonic acid metabolites in the Lipomycetaceae was next assessed. No metabolites of which the production is inhibited by aspirin were detected in strains representing the following species:Lipomyces starkeyi, Lipomyces kononenkoae, Lipomyces tetrasporus, Myxozyma melibiosi, Myxozyma mucilagina, Myxozyma kluyveri, Waltomyces lipofer, Zygozyma oligophaga andZygozyma arxii. The detection of such aspirin sensitive arachidonic acid metabolites in representative strains ofLipomyces anomalus and the genusDipodascopsis, emphasises the isolated position of these taxa in the genusLipomyces and the family Lipomycetaceae, respectively. Finally using long chain fatty acid analyses, electrophoretic karyotyping and other phenotypic characters, a phylogenetic scheme is proposed for some genera in the Lipomycetaceae.
