F06108 Nice cedex 02, France * Corresponding author: [email protected] With 5 figures in the text and an electronic supplement Abstract: Green algae (Chlorophyta) are an important group of microalgae whose diversity and ecological importance in marine systems has been little studied. In this review, we first present an overview of Chlorophyta taxonomy and detail the most important groups from the marine environment. Then, using public 18S rRNA Chlorophyta sequences from culture and natural samples retrieved from the annotated Protist Ribosomal Reference (PR²) database, we illustrate the distribution of different green algal lineages in the oceans. The largest group of sequences belongs to the class Mamiellophyceae and in particular to the three genera Micromonas, Bathycoccus and Ostreococcus. These sequences originate mostly from coastal regions. Other groups with a large number of sequences include the Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyceae, Chlorodendrophyceae and Pyramimonadales. Some groups, such as the undescribed prasinophytes clades VII and IX, are mostly composed of environmental sequences. The 18S rRNA sequence database we assembled and validated should be useful for the analysis of metabarcode datasets acquired using next generation sequencing.

    Earth-Science Reviews 212 (2021) 103382 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Earth-Science Reviews journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/earscirev Review Article Permian–Triassic non-marine algae of Gondwana—Distributions, natural T affinities and ecological implications ⁎ Chris Maysa,b, , Vivi Vajdaa, Stephen McLoughlina a Swedish Museum of Natural History, Box 50007, SE-104 05 Stockholm, Sweden b Monash University, School of Earth, Atmosphere and Environment, 9 Rainforest Walk, Clayton, VIC 3800, Australia ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: The abundance, diversity and extinction of non-marine algae are controlled by changes in the physical and Permian–Triassic chemical environment and community structure of continental ecosystems. We review a range of non-marine algae algae commonly found within the Permian and Triassic strata of Gondwana and highlight and discuss the non- mass extinctions marine algal abundance anomalies recorded in the immediate aftermath of the end-Permian extinction interval Gondwana (EPE; 252 Ma). We further review and contrast the marine and continental algal records of the global biotic freshwater ecology crises within the Permian–Triassic interval. Specifically, we provide a case study of 17 species (in 13 genera) palaeobiogeography from the succession spanning the EPE in the Sydney Basin, eastern Australia. The affinities and ecological im- plications of these fossil-genera are summarised, and their global Permian–Triassic palaeogeographic and stra- tigraphic distributions are collated. Most of these fossil taxa have close extant algal relatives that are most common in freshwater, brackish or terrestrial conditions, and all have recognizable affinities to groups known to produce chemically stable biopolymers that favour their preservation over long geological intervals.

Coccolithophores are considered a dominant phytoplankton group in these 5 waters. As a marine calcifying organism they are expected to respond to the ongo- ing changes in seawater CO2 systems parameters. However, very few studies have covered the entire Mediterranean physiochemical gradients from the Strait of Gibral- tar to the Eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin.

The Tonian Period (1000-720 Ma) was a time of changes in the marine environments with increasing oxygenation and a high input of mineral nutrients from the weathering continental margins to shallow shelves, where marine life thrived. This is well documented by the elevated level of biodiversity seen in global microfossil

Marine phytoplankton are responsible for half of the global net primary production and perform mul- tiple other ecological functions and services of the global ocean. These photosynthetic organisms comprise more than 4300 marine species, but their biogeographic patterns and the resulting species diversity are poorly known, mostly owing to severe data limitations.
