Two achlorophyllous microalgal strains were isolated from the soil and white moldy colony collected inside the stone chamber of the Takamatsuzuka Tumulus in Japan. Phylogenetic analyses of the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) and Dl/D2 large subunit ribosomal RNA (LSU rRNA) gene sequences, and concatenated gene sequences of the SSU and D1/D2 LSU rRNA genes indicated that our two isolates were the members of the non-photosynthetic, yeast-like microalgal Chlorellaceous genus Prototheca (Chlorellales, Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta) but well distinguished from known species. Based on phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, isolates T6713-13-10T and T61213-7-11 are proposed to represent a novel species in Prototheca, P. tumulicola, with the type strain JCM 31123T (isolate T6713-13-10T).
