Abstract
Three serotypes have been characterized with three reference strains of Saccharomyces telluris and designated as A, B, and C. One reference strain of Torpulopsis bovina, the imperfect form of S. telluris, belonged to serotype B.
Strains (141) of S. telluris isolated from four columbid species were serotyped. All 98 strains of this yeast isolated from Columba livia (feral pigeon) belonged to serotype B. Three other columbid species, C. leucocephala (white-crowned pigeon), C. fasciata (band-tailed pigeon), and Zenaidura macroura (mourning dove) harbored strains of serotype C only. Serotype A was not isolated from any of the avian species.
