Hortaea werneckii (Horta) Nishim. & Miyaji 1984

This is exemplified by Hortaea werneckii, an extremely halotolerant black yeast with a very peculiar genome. The taxonomy of the species was recently carefully revised, but despite the very large within-species genomic distances it could not be broken into several species [46]. The reason for this was that while the population genomics indicates the species is strictly clonal, the diploid genomes of the species are hybrids of relatively divergent haploid genomes and these hybrids appear to be stable over long periods of time [47].
