Taxonomic Index ......................................................................................................... 163 James J. Sullivan Program Manager, California Sea Grant College Program Eight years ago the best known commercial seaweed in California, and perhaps in the United States, was the giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera. I like to think that the National Sea Grant College Program, and especially the California program, has made many more species of economically important seaweeds well known. However, the Sea Grant programs of the different coastal states have tended to specialize in species that abound in their territorial waters; few opportunities have arisen in which specialists could work together on common regional, let alone international, problems. When Roy Tsuda of the University of Guam suggested to me that the taxonomy of economically important tropical and subtropical algae was the single greatest obstacle in the progress of seaweed aquaculture and marine natural products chemistry in the Pacific, I asked lsabella Abbott of the University of Hawaii if she would convene a workshop on that subject. She and Roy strongly recommended that an international group of experts on a number of current commercial species meet in Guam. Taxonomy is the hidden, but important, foundation of the superstructure of aquaculture and mariculture, whether of mollusks, crustaceans, fish, or seaweeds-all groups of organisms on which California Sea Grant has supported research. The taxonomy of those animal species that are important to aquaculture is, with few exceptions, well known. But the species of seaweeds that are of commercial interest are not as well known, and the names attached to many of them are frequently so uncertain that the algae cannot be sold readily. For example, when sole is offered for sale, everyone expects to get a flat, bottom-dwelling fish; but when Gracilaria, a seaweed with much potential as an agar source, is offered for sale, the buyer doesn't know the species name or the quality of the colloid he is buying. This can be important. For example, of two Hawaiian species of Gracilaria, one provides three to four times better gel strength in the agar than does the other species. When I arrived in Guam to observe the workshop, I was amazed to find the participants working night and day in efforts to resolve specific problems in taxonomy. They were enthusiastic and voluble in their thanks for the opportunity to share their systematics problems and knowledge with others equally interested. They demonstrated that a workshop divided into four or five working groups of specialists had many pluses in its favor over a symposium or seminar format. In this particular meeting, it was heartwarming to see the concentration and intellectual exchanges among those whose first languages were English, Mandarin, Japanese, Spanish, and Belgian-and the results in this volume show the great headway they made. This kind of basic research can be easily shared with large numbers of persons who have had neither the training nor years of dedication that it takes to become a specialist. I feel certain that this volume will be one of the most heavily used of all of our publications. As program manager of the California Sea Grant College Program, I join the directors of Sea Grant programs in

D. Afonso V, 5300-121 Bragança, Portugal Abstract: Seaweeds, i.e. macroalgae that occupy the littoral zone, are a great source of compounds with diverse applications; their types and content greatly determine the potential applications and commercial values. Algal polysaccharides, namely the hydrocolloids: agar, alginate and carrageenan, as well as other non-jellifying polysaccharides and oligosaccharides, are valuable bioproducts. Likewise, pig- ments, proteins, amino acids and phenolic compounds are also important, exploitable compounds. For the longest time the dominant market for macroalgae has been the food industry. More recently, several other industries have increased their interest in algal-derived products, e.g. cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and more recently, as a s ource of feedstock for biorefinery applications. This manuscript re- views the chemical composition of dominant macroalgae, as well as their potential added-value products and applications. Particular at- tention is devoted to the macroalgal species from the Iberian Peninsula. This is located in the Southwest of Europe and is influenced by the distinct climates of the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, representing a rich spot of marine floral biodiversity.

This represents the frst inventory encompass- ing the three major macroalgal classes (Phaeophyceae, Florideophyceae and Ulvophyceae) for the little-known Malagasy marine fora. Combining morphological and DNA-based approaches, we report from our collection a total of 110 species from northern Madagas- car, including 30 species of Phaeophyceae, 50 Florideophyceae and 30 Ulvophyceae. Bar- coding of the chloroplast-encoded rbcL gene was used for the three algal classes, in addi- tion to tufA for the Ulvophyceae. This study signifcantly increases our knowledge of the Malagasy marine biodiversity while augmenting the rbcL and tufA algal reference libraries for DNA barcoding. These eforts resulted in a total of 72 new species records for Mada- gascar. Combining our own data with the literature, we also provide an updated catalogue of 442 taxa of marine benthic
