@article{MateoCid2014NeogoniolithonR, title={Neogoniolithon (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) on the Atlantic coast of Mexico, including N. siankanensis sp. nov.}, author={Luz Elena Mateo-Cid and A. Catalina Mendoza Gonz{\'a}lez and Paul W. Gabrielson}, journal={Phytotaxa}, year={2014}, volume={190}, pages={64-93} }
This is the first revision of Neogoniolithon species on the east coast of Mexico based on both DNA sequences ( psb A) and morpho-anatomical characters. Nine species names are provisionally applied based on morpho-anatomical comparisons with type specimens or with species descriptions: N. accretum , N. acropetum , N. erosum , N. mamillare , N. propinquum, N. rhizophorae, N. solubile , N. spectabile and N. strictum . For none of these species was type or topotype material sequenced, but all have…

Phylogenetic and species delimitation analyses of the newly generated sequences from recently dredged specimens at Ewing and Sackett Banks offshore Louisiana reveal the presence of at least six species of Lithothamnion, whose generic placement is confirmed by SEM images of features considered characteristic for the genus.
Revision of Corallinaceae (Corallinales, Rhodophyta): recognizing Dawsoniolithon gen. nov., Parvicellularium gen. nov. and Chamberlainoideae subfam. nov. containing Chamberlainium gen. nov. and Pneophyllum
- BiologyJournal of phycology
- 2018
The Chamberlainoideae subfamily has no diagnostic morpho‐anatomical features that enable one to assign specimens to it without DNA sequence data, and it is the first subfamily to possess both Type 1 (Chamberlainium) and Type 2 (Pneophyllum) tetra/bisporangial conceptacle roof development.

Small subunit rDNA and cox1 analyses showed that N. brassica‐florida was polyphyletic, and strongly imply that crustose species lacking any protuberances such as Neogoniolithon fosliei (Heydrich) Setchell et Mason and species with protuberance or branches such as N. frutescens (Foslie), which should be treated as genetically different groups (species).

The Mastophoroideae is amended to be limited to Mastophora and Metamastophora with a thin thallus with basal filaments comprised of palisade cells, tetrasporangial conceptacles formed by filaments peripheral to fertile areas, and spermatangia derived only from the floor of male conceptacles, which supports Setchell’s (1943) original definition of the Mastophileae as having thin thalli.
