Overview of candiduria and UTI caused by Candida and related species in adults
‘Candida’ may be used as a descriptive term as well as a genus name. Some yeasts that were previously considered Candida species have been reclassified and are now considered candida-like and may be reported with a new name (eg Nakaseomyces glabratus, Pichia kudriavzevii)Borman, 2021Keighley, 2021. For a list of commonly encountered Candida and related species and, if applicable, revised species names, see Common Candida and related species, and changes to nomenclature1.
