"Forma asexualis" as explained in another paper
The authors favor the use of the expression forma asexualis (f.a.) in the
description of anamorphic species of the genus
Cystobasidium and this decision follows the current
practice of reclassification of asexual yeast taxa (see
e.g. Lachance 2012; Groenewald and Smith 2013;
Daniel et al. 2013; Selbmann et al. 2014)

@WYSIWYG: yes. Before this change, the anamorph and teleomorph had to have different names, and were even in different genera... because they had different appearance.

@WYSIWYG: actually the rules are more complicated for the existing names en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… i.e. they didn't force them out; that's why you mostly see "f.a." in combination with sp.nov (or more rarely comb.nov.) on a search.
