This dataset contains 41 light-microscopy images generated during the taxonomic characterization of Yamadazyma thunbergiae sp. nov., a yeast species associated with Bengal clock vine (Thunbergia grandiflora) and soil in Okinawa, Japan. Cells were grown on a panel of commonly used yeast media with differing nutrient compositions. The images underlie the species description reported in: Seike, T. et al. (2024) Int. J. Syst. Evol. Microbiol. 74, e006537. https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.006537.
