“…Even strains from different countries had intraspecific variation below 1%, except the Turkish strain ACUF785 and a sequence designated as 'clone T09'. Since p-distances between sister species of red algae vary, for example, from 1 to 2% (Boo et al 2014), especially sequence 'clone T09' could represent members originating from other undiscovered and undescribed populations or it could even represent a new taxon. The topology of our phylogenetic tree (Fig.…”

The rare microscopic red alga Galdieria phlegrea (Cyanidiohyceae, Rhodophyta) has been discovered in the extremely acid Tinto River in Spain and this occurrence is here related to previous knowledge about the distribution and ecology of this enigmatic alga. The taxonomic affiliation of the new isolate of G. phlegrea was revealed by reconstructing the phylogeny of plastid‐encoded rbcL. According to this phylogeny, the Tinto River alga is closely related to other G. phlegrea strains originating from extreme habitats in Czechia, Italy and Turkey, suggesting a wider distribution and higher ecological versatility than previously thought. The results suggest that G. phlegrea, and then possibly also other cyanidiophycean algae, are not as restricted to strongly acidic and hot microhabitats as previously believed, which, in turn, may indicate that they may commonly have been overlooked and possibly are much more widespread than is currently believed.

“…Gelidium sclerophyllum and G. floridanum W.R. Taylor have been consistently resolved together in a strongly supported clade that increased sampling is revealing to represent a closely related species complex [31,32,47]. Gelidium sclerophyllum has been reported from Mexico south to Ecuador, but this is the first report from Panama.…”

Molecular Assisted Identification Reveals Hidden Red Algae Diversity from the Burica Peninsula, Pacific Panama

et al. 2017

Abstract:The marine flora of Panama harbors a rich diversity of green, red and brown algae, and despite chronic understudy, it is reported as the second most diverse marine flora along the Pacific Central American coast, with 174 macroalgal species. Extensive new collections and molecular assisted identification (MAI) by an international team of researchers has revealed an even greater diversity for this country. Here, the intertidal and shallow subtidal marine flora of the remote Burica Peninsula is introduced. This area is characterized by an uplifted extensive intertidal flat composed of firm, sedimentary benthos known as mudrock, on which abundant algal communities thrive, even during extended periods of exposure. A collection of nearly 200 brown, green and red macroalgae specimens representing the first marine floristic inventory of this region was made in January 2011, and results of analyses of 45 foliose red algae specimens are presented. DNA sequence data for several loci (rbcL-3P; COI-5P; UPA) have been generated for molecular assisted identification and to guide morphological assessments. Twenty-six species were identified among the specimens including 21 new Pacific Panama records, as well as previously unrealized transisthmian distributions, and two new species, Neorubra parvolacertoides sp. nov. and Grateloupia irregularis sp. nov.
