Symbiotic interactions between microorganisms and social insects have been described as crucial for the maintenance of these multitrophic systems, as observed for the stingless beeScaptotrigona depilisand the yeastZygosaccharomycessp. The larvae ofS. depilisingest fungal filaments ofZygosaccharomycessp. to obtain ergosterol, which is the precursor for the biosynthesis of ecdysteroids that modulate insect metamorphosis. In this work we verified that nutritional fungal symbioses also occur in other species of stingless bees. We analyzed brood cell samples from 19 species of stingless bees collected in Brazil. The osmophilic yeast Zygosaccharomyces spp. was isolated from eight bee species, namelyScaptotrigona bipuctata,S. postica,S. tubiba,Tetragona clavipes,Melipona quadrifasciata,M. fasciculata,M. bicolorandPartamona helleri. These yeasts form pseudohyphae and also accumulate ergosterol in lipid droplets, similar to the pattern observed forS. depilis. The phylogenetic analyses including variousZygosaccharomycesrevealed that strains isolated from the brood cells formed a branch separated from the previously describedZygosaccharomycesspecies, suggesting that they are new species of this genus and reinforcing the symbiotic interaction with the host insects.
