PJS Special Issue Ang Et Al.Indd Philippine Journal of Science 142: 5-49, Special Issue ISSN 0031 - 7683 Date Received: 2 May 2013 A Verification of Reports of Marine Algal Species from the Philippines Put O. Ang, Jr., Sin Man Leung, and Mei Mei Choi Marine Science Laboratory School of Life Sciences, Chinese University of Hong Kong Shatin, N.T., Hong Kong SAR, CHINA Records of marine macroalgae reported from the Philippines were checked against AlgaeBase, the international database for algal nomenclatures, and Index Nominum Algarum (INA) Bibliographia Phycologica Universalis of the University of California at Berkeley Silva Center for Phycological Documentation to verify their present nomenclature, status of taxonomy and bibliographic reference. To date, 306 names of taxa (including species, varieties and forms) of greens (Chlorophyta), 234 names of taxa of browns (Ochrophyta, Phaeophyceae) and 751 names of taxa of reds (Rhodophyta), or a total of 1291 published names of taxa have been reported from the Philippines. Of these, 231 taxa representing 197 species in 20 families for green algae, 171 taxa representing 153 species in 10 families for brown algae, and 564 taxa representing 543 species in 52 families for red algae are considered valid records listed with their currently accepted names. All in all, 966 currently accepted taxa, representing 893 species in 82 families of marine macroalgae have been reported from the Philippines. Among the greens, 15 taxa have their type localities in the Philippines. This number is 40 for the browns and 33 for the reds. Proportionally, this is 6.5% of the total for the greens, 23.4% for the browns and 5.9% for the reds.

  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

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.

The students and instructors (Drs. Brian Wysor, Roger Williams University; Wilson Freshwater, University of North Carolina at Wilmington; Suzanne Fredericq, University of Louisiana at Lafayette) worked synergistically with the Smithsonian Institution's DNA Barcode initiative. As part of the Bocas Research Station's Training in Tropical Taxonomy program, lecture material included discussions of the current taxonomy of marine macroalgae; an overview and recent assessment of the diagnostic vegetative and reproductive morphological characters that differentiate orders, families, genera and species; and applications of molecular tools to pertinent questions in systematics. Instructors and students collected multiple samples of over 200 algal species by SCUBA diving, snorkeling and intertidal surveys. As part of the training in tropical taxonomy, many of these samples were used by the students to create a guide to the common seaweeds of the Bocas del Toro region. Herbarium specimens will be contributed to the Bocas station's reference collection and the University of Panama Herbarium.

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

Included are 12 species of seagrasses, 18 species of mangrove and 278 species of marine algae. Seagrasses and mangroves in the region have been comparatively well surveyed and their taxonomy is stable, so it is unlikely that further species will be recorded. However, the marine algae have been collected and documented only more recently and it is estimated that further surveys will increase the number of recorded species to over 400. The bulk of the marine flora comprised widespread Indo-West Pacific species, but there were also many endemic species with more endemics reported from the inshore areas than the offshore atolls. This number also will increase with the description of new species from the region. Collecting across the region has been highly variable due to the remote location, logistical difficulties and resource limitations.
