  • Intertidal and Subtidal Benthic Seaweed Diversity of South Georgia
    Intertidal and Subtidal Benthic Seaweed Diversity of South Georgia Report for the South Georgia Heritage Trust Survey September 2011 Shallow Marine Survey Group E Wells1, P Brewin and P Brickle 1 Wells Marine, Norfolk, UK Executive Summary South Georgia is a highly isolated island with its marine life influenced by the circumpolar currents. The local seaweed communities have been researched sporadically over the last two centuries with most species collections and records documented for a limited number of sites within easy access. Despite the harsh conditions of the shallow marine environment of South Georgia a unique and diverse array of algal flora has become well established resulting in a high level of endemism. Current levels of seaweed species diversity were achieved along the north coast of South Georgia surveying 15 sites in 19 locations including both intertidal and subtidal habitats. In total 72 species were recorded, 8 Chlorophyta, 19 Phaeophyta and 45 Rhodophyta. Of these species 24 were new records for South Georgia, one of which may even be a new record for the Antarctic/sub-Antarctic. Historic seaweed studies recorded 103 species with a new total for the island of 127 seaweed species. Additional records of seaweed to the area included both endemic and cosmopolitan species. At this stage it is unknown as to the origin of such species, whether they have been present on South Georgia for long periods of time or if they are indeed recent additions to the seaweed flora. It may be speculated that many have failed to be recorded due to the nature of South Georgia, its sheer isolation and inaccessible coastline.

  • DNA Barcoding of the German Green Supralittoral Zone Indicates the Distribution and Phenotypic Plasticity of Blidingia Species and Reveals Blidingia Cornuta Sp
    TAXON 70 (2) • April 2021: 229–245 Steinhagen & al. • DNA barcoding of German Blidingia species SYSTEMATICS AND PHYLOGENY DNA barcoding of the German green supralittoral zone indicates the distribution and phenotypic plasticity of Blidingia species and reveals Blidingia cornuta sp. nov. Sophie Steinhagen,1,2 Luisa Düsedau1 & Florian Weinberger1 1 GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Marine Ecology Department, Düsternbrooker Weg 20, 24105 Kiel, Germany 2 Department of Marine Sciences-Tjärnö, University of Gothenburg, 452 96 Strömstad, Sweden Address for correspondence: Sophie Steinhagen, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12445 Abstract In temperate and subarctic regions of the Northern Hemisphere, green algae of the genus Blidingia are a substantial and environment-shaping component of the upper and mid-supralittoral zones. However, taxonomic knowledge on these important green algae is still sparse. In the present study, the molecular diversity and distribution of Blidingia species in the German State of Schleswig-Holstein was examined for the first time, including Baltic Sea and Wadden Sea coasts and the off-shore island of Helgo- land (Heligoland). In total, three entities were delimited by DNA barcoding, and their respective distributions were verified (in decreasing order of abundance: Blidingia marginata, Blidingia cornuta sp. nov. and Blidingia minima). Our molecular data revealed strong taxonomic discrepancies with historical species concepts, which were mainly based on morphological and ontogenetic char- acters. Using a combination of molecular, morphological and ontogenetic approaches, we were able to disentangle previous mis- identifications of B. minima and demonstrate that the distribution of B. minima is more restricted than expected within the examined area.

  • The Possible Significance of Long-Range Dispersal for the Biogeography of Seaweeds C
    HELGOLANDER MEERESUNTERSUCHUNGEN Helgol~inder Meeresunters. 41,261-272 (1987} The possible significance of long-range dispersal for the biogeography of seaweeds C. van den Hoek Department of Marine Biology, Biological Centre, University of Groningen; P.O.Box 14, NL-9750 AA Haren (Gn), The Netherlands ABSTRACT: Indirect evidence of the existence of long-distance dispersal of seaweeds is provided by the fact that mid-oceanic islands of volcanic origin are inhabited by well-developed seaweed floras which could reach these islands only overseas from continental donor areas. For instance, the flora of Tristan da Cunha (S. Atlantic Ocean) was estabhshed by long-distance dispe[sal in less than 1 million years (the approximate age of the island); the seaweed flora of the Faeroes (N. Atlantic Ocean} could be constituted in less than 10,000 years (the end of the Pleistocene ice cover of these islands). There is no evidence for either supporting or discounting the possible role of planktonic stages of seaweeds (spores, propagules, zygotes) in the long-distance dispersal of seaweeds. There is, however, some evidence of long-distance dispersal as floating plants, or as plants attached to floating objects (including floating algae). There are a few examples of "artificial" long-range dispersal by man (possibly on ship hulls, oysters, in ballast water). Long-range dispersal of seaweeds does exist, but it is i~n exception rather than the rule. If it were the rule, the world's seaweed floras would show similar latitudinal gradients in species composition in the oceans and on both hemi- spheres. This is, however, not the case.

This taxon was established by KyLIN in 1947 on the basis of culture experiments by BLIDING (1938) who showed that the following features distinguished it from genus Ehateromof7)ha and proposed to establish a new genus: 1) Quadrifiagellate zoospores lacking eyespots are the only repro- ductive cells produced; 2) During germination, all of the cytop}asm of the settled zoospore migrates into a germination tube and is walled off from the empty spore; 3) The germling produces prostrate branches which form an initially rnonostromatic disc that becomes distromatic in the center and gives rise to an ereet, tubular frond with many initial cells. Nearly a hundred years before that, Blidingia minima had been described under the names Ulva intestinalis var. nana by SOMMERFELT (1826), Ehateromo7Pha minima by KUTZING (1849), E. micrococca by KUTzlNG (1856) and E. nana by SJOsTEDT (1939) on the basis of anatomical features. These species were distinguished from other EhateromoiPha species by their small cell size (}ess than 10"m iR surface view), but the criterion among these species was obscure, so there was a taxonomical confusion.
