P.-E. Lim, M. Sakaguchi, T. Hanyuda, K. Kogame, S.-M. Phang and H. Kawai. 2007. Molecular phylogeny of crustose brown algae (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae) inferred from rbcL sequences resulting in the proposal for Neoralfsiaceae fam. nov. Phycologia 46: 456–466. DOI: 10.2116/06-90.1 The order Ralfsiales was established to accommodate the brown algal taxa having a crustose thallus, an isomorphic life history, discoid early development of the thallus and containing a single, plate-shaped chloroplast… 

Mesospora elongata sp. nov. (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae), a new crustose brown algal species from the Indo-Pacific region

It is concluded that Mesospora should be a distinct genus based on morphology; gene sequence data will be required for Hapalospongidion before the relationship of the two genera is more thoroughly resolved.

Molecular phylogeny of Zeacarpa (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae) proposing a new family Zeacarpaceae and its transfer to Nemodermatales

The molecular phylogeny of brown algae based on concatenated DNA sequences of seven chloroplast and mitochondrial gene sequences revealed the most related phylogenetic relationship of Z. leiomorpha to Nemoderma tingitanum (Nemodermatales) rather than Ralfsiaceae (Ralfsiales).

Taxonomic investigation of Ralfsia-like (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae) taxa in the North Atlantic Ocean based on molecular and morphological data, with descriptions of Pseudoralfsiaceae fam. nov., Pseudoralfsia azorica gen. et sp. nov. and Nuchella vesicularis gen. et sp. nov.

This study investigated Ralfsia-like crusts with an emphasis on the North Atlantic Ocean using molecular data, combined with morpho-anatomical comparisons of type material and contemporary specimens, and revealed 11 independent genetic lineages of Ralfa-like taxa, which were not assignable to any of the recognized families of the RalfSiales.

Molecular phylogeny of two unusual brown algae, Phaeostrophion irregulare and Platysiphon glacialis, proposal of the Stschapoviales ord. nov. and Platysiphonaceae fam. nov., and a re‐examination of divergence times for brown algal orders

It is proposed that the development of heteromorphic life histories and their success in the temperate and cold‐water regions was induced by theDevelopment of the remarkable seasonality caused by the breakup of Pangaea.

Proposal for the Sungminiaceae fam. nov. (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae) for Sungminia gen. nov. with three new species based on molecular and morphological analyses

It is proposed to place Sungminia in a new family, the Sungminiaceae fam.

Colpomenia bullosa crust masquerading as Ralfsia verrucosa (Phaeophyceae) in southeast Australia

This study analyzes nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and plastid rbcL genes from the crustose brown algae from Kainga Reef, Australia and Isle of Man, UK and shows that the taxonomy and biogeography of R. verrucosa, the most common crustose species in temperate to cold waters of the world, needs to be re-examined.

A molecular-assisted floristic survey of crustose brown algae (Phaeophyceae) from Malaysia and Lombok Island, Indonesia based on rbcL and partial cox1 genes

Six crustose brown algae species, including a new record of Mesospora negrosensis for Malaysia, were identified using molecular markers from the plastid rubisco large subunit (rbcL) and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) genes in tandem with morphology and anatomy to better understand the diversity of these understudied algae in the Indo–Malay region.

Morphological and molecular characterization of Neoralfsia hancockii comb. nov. (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae) from topotype of San José del Cabo, Baja California, Mexico

Morphological and molecular data confirmed that the presence of unangia with (2–) 3–6 stalk cells and mostly unilateral symmetry with partial bilateral development is characteristic of this species and distinguishes it from the morphologically similar Neoralfsia expansa sensu Børgesen.

A revised classification of the Sphacelariales (Phaeophyceae) inferred from a psbC and rbcL based phylogeny

A pilot study showed a strongly supported monophyly of the Sphacelariales with its sister taxa Phaeostrophion irregulare, Bodanella lauterborni and Heribaudiella fluviatilis, while Bayesian Inference and Maximum Likelihood trees showed some incongruence with Maximum Parsimony trees.

Transfer of Pilinia from Ectocarpales to Ishigeales (Phaeophyceae) with proposal of Piliniaceae fam. nov., and taxonomy of Porterinema in Ectocarpales

ABSTRACT Molecular phylogeny based on concatenated sequences of chloroplast atpB, psaA, psbA, psbC and rbcL genes indicates that the filamentous brown alga Pilinia rimosa is phylogenetically distant

MOLECULAR PHYLOGENY OF DISCOSPORANGIUM MESARTHROCARPUM (PHAEOPHYCEAE) WITH A REINSTATEMENT OF THE ORDER DISCOSPORANGIALES 1

A molecular phylogenetic analysis of the little‐studied filamentous brown alga Discosporangium mesarthrocarpum (Meneghini) Hauck using rbcL and partial 18S rDNA sequences revealed that the species

Phylogenetic relationships within the Fucales (Phaeophyceae) assessed by the photosystem I coding psaA sequences

The psaA data concur with the morphological and biogeographical hypotheses that fucalean algae might have originated from Australasian waters and have become established in the northern hemisphere, and strongly support that the genera Bifurcariopsis and Xiphophora should be separated from the Cystoseiraceae and the Fucaceae, respectively.

Morphology and molecular phylogeny of Phaeostrophion irregulare (Phaeophyceae) with a proposal for Phaeostrophiaceae fam. nov., and a review of Ishigeaceae

M molecular phylogenetic studies using rbcL (chloroplast) and partial 18S and 26S ribosomal RNA (nuclear) gene sequences revealed that Phaeostrophion is not included in the clade of Ectocarpales s.l., but forms a clade with Sphacelariales which diverged relatively early in the evolution of Phaeophyceae and shares an apical or marginal meristematic manner of growth with them.

MORPHOLOGY, LIFE HISTORY, AND MOLECULAR PHYLOGENY OF STSCHAPOVIA FLAGELLARIS (TILOPTERIDALES, PHAEOPHYCEAE) AND THE ERECTION OF THE STSCHAPOVIACEAE FAM. NOV. 1

The establishment of the new family Stschapoviaceae is proposed to accommodate StSchapovia and the placement of the family in the order Tilopteridales together with TilopterIDaceae, Halosiphonaceae, and Phyllariaceae.

PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS OF THE BROWN ALGAL ORDERS ECTOCARPALES, CHORDARIALES, DICTYOSIPHONALES, AND TILOPTERIDALES (PHAEOPHYCEAE) BASED ON RUBISCO LARGE SUBUNIT AND SPACER SEQUENCES

A separate parsimony analysis of the RUBISCO spacer as well as a combined rbcL and spacer analysis supported the close relationship among the latter three orders, adding to the evidence that they should be subsumed into the Ectocarpales sensu lato.

A MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF ANALIPUS AND RALFSIA (PHAEOPHYCEAE) SUGGESTS THE ORDER ECTOCARPALES IS POLYPHYLETIC 1

The results suggest that the ectocarpoids are just as distantly related to A. japonicus and R. fungiformis as they are to members of the advanced orders Desmarestiales, Dictyotales, Fucales, Laminariale, Sphacelariales, and Syringodermatales.

Molecular phylogeny of Phyllariaceae, Halosiphonaceae and Tilopteridales (Phaeophyceae)

The rbcL + Rubisco spacer sequences, as well as the 5.8S + ITS2 + 26S rDNA sequences, supported the independence of existing taxa of the Phyllariaceae and suggested early divergence of Saccorhiza within the family.
