Il fallait aller au-delà de ce document: pour ce faire, nous nous sommes livrés à un examen rigoureux de l’ensemble des données disponibles. Nous nous sommes appuyés sur les deux “essais d’inventaires” publiés par EMBERGER, il y a une vingtaine d’années déjà, le premier sur les Algues du Carbonifère et du Permien (EMBERGER, 1976) et le second sur celles du Trias (EMBERGER, 1979).

Department of l^OlXlrnu The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date Apl fl3^ , % DE-6 (2/88) Abstract The Dasycladalian algae produce diverse whorled structures, among which the best-known are the reproductive whorl (cap) and the vegetative whorls (hair whorls) of Acetabularia acetabulum. The origin of these structures is addressed in terms of three pattern forming mechanisms proposed to explain whorl formation. The mechanisms involve either: mechanical buckling of the cell wall, reaction-diffusion of morphogens along the cell membrane, or Ca2+-cytoskeleton mechano- chemical interactions in the cytosol. They are described and their idiosyncrasies underlined to provide a ground to test them experimentally. It is also suggested that the closely regulated spacing between the elements of a whorl is a key component of such a test.

With more than 100 species described on a morphological basis, an 5 accurate evaluation of its diversity is still missing. Here we analysed 277 chloroplast-encoded 6 gene sequences (43 from this study), representing 35 nominal species of Ulva from the 7 Pacific, Indian Ocean, and Atlantic (with a particular emphasis on the Brazilian coast) in an 8 attempt to solve the complex phylogenetic relationships within this widespread genus.

    Biodiversity and community structure of seaweeds in Minahasa Peninsula, North Sulawesi, Indonesia Rene C. Kepel, Lawrence J. L. Lumingas, John L. Tombokan, Desy M. H. Mantiri Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Sam Ratulangi University, Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Corresponding author: R. C. Kepel, [email protected] Abstract. This study was conducted to determine the biodiversity and community structure (species composition, richness, diversity, evenness, dominance and clustering) of seaweeds found along the intertidal zone of Minahasa Peninsula, North Sulawesi Indonesia. The line transect method was used to identify and quantify the seaweeds abounding the three established stations divided into three transects each station, and each transect divided into ten quadrates. A total of 35 different species of seaweeds were identified in the study area belonging Rhodophyta (Rhodomelaceae, Lithophyllaceae, Mastoporaceae, Galaxauraceae, Gelidiaceae, Gracilariaceae, Solieriaceae, Cystocloniaceae), Phaeophyta (Dictyotaceae, Scytosiphonaceae, Sargassaceae) and Chlorophyta (Ulvaceae, Caulerpaceae, Halimedaceae, Dichotomosiphonaceae, Cladophoraceae, Anadyomenaceae, Siphonocladaceae, Valoniaceae, Dasycladaceae, Polyphysaceae). The most abundant seaweed species across the three stations were: Amphiroa fragilissima, Gracilaria edulis, and Bornetella sphaerica. The seaweed species identified also has different densities ranging from 0.03 to 23.77/m2. A. fragilissima had the highest density, and Hydroclathrus clathratus and had the lowest density. Species richness index, diversity index, evenness index and dominance index were calculated to determine diversity of seaweeds along the study area. Station 2 obtained the highest species richness and station 3 obtained the lowest species richness. On the other hand, station 2 recorded the highest diversity and station 1 recorded the lowest diversity. Evenness index was highest at station 2, while the lowest was at station 1.

  • Catalog of Marine Benthic Algae from New Caledonia
    Catalog of Marine Benthic Algae from New Caledonia CLAIRE GARRIGUE ORSTOM, BP AS, Noumea, New Caledonia RoY T. TsuDA Marine Laboratory, University of Guam UOG Station, Mangilao, Guam 96923 Abstract-A catalog of the marine benthic algae (Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta and Rhodophyta) re­ ported from New Caledonia is presented in two sections-!. Classification; II. Checklist with refer­ ences and localities. There are 35 genera, 130 species of green algae; 23 genera, 59 species of brown algae; and 79 genera, 147 species of red algae which represent a rich algal flora for the subtropics. Introduction This New Caledonian benthic algal catalog consists of two sections, and generally follows the format as presented by Tsuda and Wray ( 1977) for Micronesian benthic algae and by Payri and Meinesz (1985) for French Polynesian benthic algae. The first section (1. Classification) provides a list of the classes, orders, families and genera of those marine benthic algae within the Divisions Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta and Rhodophyta reported from New Caledonia. The second section (II. Checklist with References and Localities) provides an al­ phabetized checklist of all taxa (i.e., species, varieties and forms) within the three Divi­ sions reported from publications up to 1987. Each taxon is followed by the name of the author(s) who reports it from New Caledonia, the year of publication, and the collection site (if known). The New Caledonian specimens are located in various herbaria-ORSTOM her­ barium and C.

  • Green Algae and the Origin of Land Plants1
    American Journal of Botany 91(10): 1535±1556. 2004. GREEN ALGAE AND THE ORIGIN OF LAND PLANTS1 LOUISE A. LEWIS2,4 AND RICHARD M. MCCOURT3,4 2Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Connecticut, Storrs, Connecticut 06269 USA; and 3Department of Botany, Academy of Natural Sciences, 1900 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103 USA Over the past two decades, molecular phylogenetic data have allowed evaluations of hypotheses on the evolution of green algae based on vegetative morphological and ultrastructural characters. Higher taxa are now generally recognized on the basis of ultrastruc- tural characters. Molecular analyses have mostly employed primarily nuclear small subunit rDNA (18S) and plastid rbcL data, as well as data on intron gain, complete genome sequencing, and mitochondrial sequences. Molecular-based revisions of classi®cation at nearly all levels have occurred, from dismemberment of long-established genera and families into multiple classes, to the circumscription of two major lineages within the green algae. One lineage, the chlorophyte algae or Chlorophyta sensu stricto, comprises most of what are commonly called green algae and includes most members of the grade of putatively ancestral scaly ¯agellates in Prasinophyceae plus members of Ulvophyceae, Trebouxiophyceae, and Chlorophyceae. The other lineage (charophyte algae and embryophyte land plants), comprises at least ®ve monophyletic groups of green algae, plus embryophytes. A recent multigene analysis corroborates a close relationship between Mesostigma (formerly in the Prasinophyceae) and the charophyte algae, although sequence data of the Mesostigma mitochondrial genome analysis places the genus as sister to charophyte and chlorophyte algae. These studies also support Charales as sister to land plants.

ON THE OCCURRENCE AND PHYCO-GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF SARGASSUM DUPLICATUM AND HALICORYNE WRIGHTII IN THE PHILIPPINES PACIENTE A. CORDERO, Jr. Division of Botany, Philippine National Herbarium, Philippine National Museum, Manila With Text-figures 1-4 and Table 1 Abstract The phyco-geographical distribution, based on the scheme designed by Cordero ( 197 7), in the Philip­ pine Archipelago of the two tropical marine algae, Halicoryne wrightii Harvey (Dasycladaceae, Chloro­ phyta) and Sargassum duplicatum J. Agardh (Sargassaceae, Phaeophyta), are presented. Observations show that H. wrightii flourishes well in the Inland Waters, whileS. duplicatum grows favorably along the exposed coasts of the South China Sea and the Pacific Ocean. Also, records reveal that the northern-most occurrence of H. wrightii is in Ryukyu Islands, Japan, the southern-most in Bali, Indonesia, the western­ most on west coast of the Philippines, and the eastern-most on the Pacific coast of Japan; while in S. duplicatum, the northern-most occurrence is on the Pacific coast of central Japan, the southern-most in Australia, the western-most in Vietnam, and the eastern-most in Guam.
