INTRODUCTORY NOTE On the occasion of the International Workshop on Movphogenes-ùs in Aoetabu- laHa (Berlin-West, September 6-9, 1980), we prepared a list of références on Aoetahulcœia and the other Basycladaoeae for the period 1960-1980. The list extends those previously published by other authors (Puiseux-Dao, 1970; Schweiger et al., 1974; Bonotto et al., 1976). Author names are given in alphabetical order per year. Moreover, pictures of several species of Dasyatadaaeae axe. added to the list with the aim of making known, especially to young students, the peculiar morphology of this group of marine algae. Although the list has been updated, some références are still lacking, mainly those on fossil Dasyatadaaeae, Therefore, we wish to invite the "Acetabularists" to send us the références not included in the list, which could be reported in one of the next issues of "Aaetabular-ia Newsletter", for the benefit of the entire Aaetabulopia community. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We acknowledge the kind receipt of pictures from Dr N.J. Eiseman (Harbor Branch Foundation, Inc., Florida, U.S.A.), Dr S.A. Moorjani (University of Nairobi, Kenya), Dr I. Shihira-Ishikawa (University of Osaka, Japan) and Dr H.B.S. Womersley (University of Adelaide, South Australia).

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

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.

  • The Marine Benthic Algae of the Caroline Islands, I. Introduction, Chlorophyta, and Cyanophyta1
    The Marine Benthic Algae of the Caroline Islands, I. Introduction, Chlorophyta, and Cyanophyta1 Gavino C. TRONO, JR. Department of Botany, College of Arts and Sciences University of the Philippines, Quezon City, Philippines Introduction T he Caroline Islands are largely a group of atolls located between 131 ° and 164° East Longitude and 2° to 10° North Latitude. Most of the islands are low islands or coral atolls, but the islands of Kusaie, Ponape, Truk, and Palau are high islands of volcanic origin while Yap is of uplifted sedimentary origin. Those lying east of 148° East Longitude comprise the Eastern Caroline Islands, while those west of this meridian comprise the Western Caroline Islands. Together they constitute much of Micronesia. The Caroline Islands (Pl. 1) form a chain roughly parallel to and just above the equator. The chain is flanked at its eastern end by the Marshall and Gilbert Islands, southward by several island groups comprising Melanesia, and westward by the Philippine Islands. The earliest known records of the marine benthic algae from the Caroline Islands are those of Reinbold (1901) based on the materials collected by Dr. Volkens from the island of Yap. Except for those published by Schmidt in 1928, most ,of the records from 1904 to 1944 were contributed by Japanese phycologists. The first Japanese phycologist to contribute to the knowledge of the algae ,of Micronesia was Okamura (1904), who enumerated 82 species from the Caroline lslands and Australia of which 26 species were from Palau and Yap Islands. The materials were collected and sent to him by S. Abe.

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.

  • Complex Phylogenetic Distribution of a Non-Canonical Genetic Code In
    Cocquyt et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2010, 10:327 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/327 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Complex phylogenetic distribution of a non- canonical genetic code in green algae Ellen Cocquyt1*, Gillian H Gile2, Frederik Leliaert1, Heroen Verbruggen1, Patrick J Keeling2, Olivier De Clerck1 Abstract Background: A non-canonical nuclear genetic code, in which TAG and TAA have been reassigned from stop codons to glutamine, has evolved independently in several eukaryotic lineages, including the ulvophycean green algal orders Dasycladales and Cladophorales. To study the phylogenetic distribution of the standard and non- canonical genetic codes, we generated sequence data of a representative set of ulvophycean green algae and used a robust green algal phylogeny to evaluate different evolutionary scenarios that may account for the origin of the non-canonical code. Results: This study demonstrates that the Dasycladales and Cladophorales share this alternative genetic code with the related order Trentepohliales and the genus Blastophysa, but not with the Bryopsidales, which is sister to the Dasycladales. This complex phylogenetic distribution whereby all but one representative of a single natural lineage possesses an identical deviant genetic code is unique. Conclusions: We compare different evolutionary scenarios for the complex phylogenetic distribution of this non- canonical genetic code. A single transition to the non-canonical code followed by a reversal to the canonical code in the Bryopsidales is highly improbable due to the profound genetic changes that coincide with codon reassignment. Multiple independent gains of the non-canonical code, as hypothesized for ciliates, are also unlikely because the same deviant code has evolved in all lineages.

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.

The multi-locus Available online 25 December 2008 approach resolves much of the previous phylogenetic uncertainty, but the radiation of families belonging to the core Halimedineae remains unresolved.
