    The Red Alga Polysiphonia (Rhodomelaceae) in the Northern Gulf of California GEORGE J. HOLLENBERG ' • ,. • •a and JAMES N. NORRIS SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MARINE SCIENCES SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

  • Biogeography of the Marine Red Algae of the South African West Coast: a Molecular Approach
    ms44.qxd 30/10/02 9:12 am Page 1 Biogeography of the marine red algae of the South African West Coast: a molecular approach Max H Hommersand1 & Suzanne Fredericq2 1Department of Biology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3280, USA 2Department of Biology, University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Lafayette, LA 70504-2451 1E-mail: [email protected] Key words: red algae, South Africa, Namibia, biogeography, distribution, phylogeny, species clusters Abstract This study investigates the hypothesis that a major portion of the present red algal flora of the South African West Coast and Namibia (Benguela Marine Province) originated in Australasia (Australia and New Zealand) and was dispersed across West Antarctica, followed by its isolation with the establishment of the West Wind Drift as a permanent oceanic feature. Phylogenetic hypotheses are inferred for six species clus- ters, and pairwise base differences are calculated for additional selected taxa based on analyses of rbcL sequences. These are compared to the history of tectonic, paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic events that may have influenced the distribution of red algae to the South African West Coast. Abbreviations: pbd – pairwise base distance (1997), the algal flora of this region was known only from scattered reports in the literature. This Introduction volume expands the list of described seaweeds by nearly 60% to approximately 400 species of which The South African West Coast composes part of 274, or 68%, are red algae (Rhodophyta).

Silva Festschrift Marine Algal (Seaweed) Collections at the Natural History Museum, London (BM): Past, Present and Future Ian Tittley Department of Botany, The Natural History Museum, London SW7 5BD ABSTRACT The specimen collections and libraries of the Natural History Museum (BM) constitute an important reference centre for macro marine algae (brown, green and red generally known as seaweeds). The first collections of algae were made in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and are among the earliest collections in the museum from Britain and abroad. Many collectors have contributed directly or indirectly to the development and growth of the seaweed collection and these are listed in an appendix to this paper. The taxonomic and geographical range of the collection is broad and a significant amount of information is associated with it. As access to this information is not always straightforward, a start has been made to improve this through specimen databases and image collections. A collection review has improved the availability of geographical information; lists of countries for a given species and lists of species for a given country will soon be available, while for Great Britain and Ireland geographical data from specimens have been collated to create species distribution maps. This paper considers issues affecting future development of the seaweed collection at the Natural History Museum, the importance and potential of the UK collection as a resource of national biodiversity information, and participation in a global network of collections.

  • 2004 University of Connecticut Storrs, CT
    Welcome Note and Information from the Co-Conveners We hope you will enjoy the NEAS 2004 meeting at the scenic Avery Point Campus of the University of Connecticut in Groton, CT. The last time that we assembled at The University of Connecticut was during the formative years of NEAS (12th Northeast Algal Symposium in 1973). Both NEAS and The University have come along way. These meetings will offer oral and poster presentations by students and faculty on a wide variety of phycological topics, as well as student poster and paper awards. We extend a warm welcome to all of our student members. The Executive Committee of NEAS has extended dormitory lodging at Project Oceanology gratis to all student members of the Society. We believe this shows NEAS members’ pride in and our commitment to our student members. This year we will be honoring Professor Arthur C. Mathieson as the Honorary Chair of the 43rd Northeast Algal Symposium. Art arrived with his wife, Myla, at the University of New Hampshire in 1965 from California. Art is a Professor of Botany and a Faculty in Residence at the Jackson Estuarine Laboratory of the University of New Hampshire. He received his Bachelor of Science and Master’s Degrees at the University of California, Los Angeles. In 1965 he received his doctoral degree from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. Over a 43-year career Art has supervised many undergraduate and graduate students studying the ecology, systematics and mariculture of benthic marine algae. He has been an aquanaut-scientist for the Tektite II and also for the FLARE submersible programs.

Morphological studies conducted on Osmundea specimens collected in the LSMSP revealed characteristics typical of the genus Osmundea, including two pericentral cells per each axial segment and tetrasporangia cut off randomly from cortical cells.

ISABEL MENESES 2 ABSTRACT: Ceramium is widely distributed and recorded from the coasts of the North Pacific Ocean. Thus, it is not surprising to find new species and new records of this genus among the numerous islands spread in this oceanic region. Extensive examination ofmaterial collected around O'ahu and other Hawaiian Islands has yielded two new records: Ceramium aduncum Nakamura (pre­ viously known from Japan), Ceramium clarionensis Setchell & Gardner (pre­ viously recorded for the Pacific coast of Mexico), and a new species, Ceramium cingulum Meneses.

(Delesseriaceae, Ceramiales) is a new monotypic genus based on Hypoglossum geminatum Okamura, a species originally described from Japan. Wynneophycus geminatus (Okamura) comb. nov.is characterized by a discoid holdfast, erect or decumbent monostromatic blades with percurrent midribs, production of new blades from the midrib axial cells and absence of microscopic veins. In addition, it has apical cell division, several orders of lateral cell rows and paired transverse periaxial cells and formation of second-order cell rows from lateral cells with all forming third-order cell rows, with the midrib becoming corticated and forming a subterete stipe below as the blade wings are lost. Distinctive features of the new genus include tetrasporangia initiated from and restricted to single rows of second-order cells arranged in a single layer, cover cells developing prior to the tetrasporangia and an absence of intercalary cell divisions. Phylogenetic analyses of rbcL and large-subunit rDNA sequence data support the separation of Wynneophycus from Hypoglossum. We herein report on W. geminatus gen. & comb. nov. and delineate the new tribe Wynneophycuseae within the subfamily Delesserioideae of the family Delesseriaceae.
