“…The morphological features of Martensia were recognized as the possession of membranous thalli with a single or multiple bands of networks, absence of any type of veins, and reproductive structures formed mostly on the networks (Kylin 1956, Yoshida and Mikami 1996, Womersley 2003, Lee 2006. However, the presence of network organization is not always a good morphological character since Lin et al (2001b) demonstrated that Opephyllum martensii F. Schmitz, which has a thallus lacking networks, is a member of Martensia.…”

“…However, the presence of network organization is not always a good morphological character since Lin et al (2001b) demonstrated that Opephyllum martensii F. Schmitz, which has a thallus lacking networks, is a member of Martensia. Lee (2006) subsequently described a new species, Martensia flammifolia, which is another species that lacks a network; it was described from Jeju Island, Korea. A total of 20 species of Martensia are currently accepted worldwide (Guiry and Guiry 2014).…”

“…Since the first record of Martensia species on the Korean coast, only one species, Martensia denticulata Harvey, was recognized (Lee and Kang 2001) until, during the 2000s, the number of Martensia species was greatly increased in the Korean macroalgal inventory (Lee 2004(Lee , 2005(Lee , 2006. Nine species of Martensia were identified occurring at Jeju Island, Korea: Martensia albida Y. Lee, Martensia australis Harvey, Martensia bibarii Y. Lee, M. elegans Hering, Martensia flammifolia Y.

Previous taxonomic studies reported that nine species of Martensia (i.e., Martensia albida, Martensia australis, Martensia bibarii, Martensia elegans, Martensia flammifolia, Martensia fragilis, Martensia jejuensis, Martensia projecta, and Martensia palmata) occur on the Korean coast. Our recent Martensia collections from various localities in Korea contain many specimens with a huge range of morphological variation and are difficult to classify into the named species. In this study, we analyzed DNA sequences of rbcL and COI genes to access their phylogenetic relationships and to verify taxonomic status based on morphological observations. The molecular analyses revealed that only two species of Martensia occur in Korea (M. albida and M. jejuensis). Martensia albida is characterized by having entire margins of blades with a single band of networks, whereas M. jejuensis is distinguished from the other species by possessing projections along the margins of the networks and blades. Both molecular analyses and morphological observations revealed that M. flammifolia is a member of the genus Nitophyllum. Some features (e.g., thallus habit, branching patterns, blade morphology, positions of reproductive structures) are not reliable for species identification.Our results indicate that the rbcL and the COI gene have sufficient resolution for delimitation at both species and generic levels in the subfamily Nitophylloideae.

“…Martensia (Hering 1841), the largest genus in the subfamily Nitophylloideae within the family Delesseriaceae, is primarily distributed in tropical to subtropical regions and includes 15 species in the western Pacific and Indian Oceans (see Millar, 1990;Lin et al, 2001aLin et al, , 2004aLin et al, , 2009Lee, 2004Lee, , 2005Lee, , 2006 and only one species, M. pavonia, in the Caribbean Sea and warm water regions of the western Atlantic Ocean (Taylor, 1960(Taylor, , 1969Littler & Littler, 2000;Wynne, 2011). The genus is primarily characterized by its membranous thalli with one (e.g.…”

The genus Martensia is characterized primarily by its unique thallus morphology, wherein a proximal membranous blade is interrupted distally by one to several bands of net-like tissue (networks). Among the known species, M. fragilis is characterized by fan-shaped, membranous blades with multiple bands of networks. The species has been frequently reported from warm temperate and tropical regions. Collections from various localities in the Indo-Pacific region included many specimens fitting this broad concept of M. fragilis, but differed in several aspects and were difficult to assign to any named species with confidence. In order to delineate the species boundaries within this suite of M. fragilis-like specimens and to clarify the phylogenetic significance of the morphological features used for separating species of Martensia, we used analyses of rbcL sequence to infer phylogenetic relationships among the available species with multiple bands of networks. Molecular analyses revealed that M. fragilis was restricted to its type locality Sri Lanka and that collections of M. 'fragilis' from other regions were split into six clades. Martensia 'fragilis' collections from Taiwan contained three cryptic species, which were described as new species (M. leeii W.

Fifty-six specimens of the red algal genus Martensia from the Main and Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, representing both shallow (36 specimens from 0-20 m depth) and mesophotic habitats (20 specimens from 62-93 m depth), were collected and characterized using morphological and molecular analyses. Phylogenetic analyses of the rbcL gene resolved five distinct clades of Martensia from the Hawaiian Islands, of which none could be attributed to the two previously used taxonomic names for this flora (M. fragilis Harvey and M. flabelliformis Harvey ex J.Agardh). Analyses of the COI barcoding region were consistent with rbcL trends, although fewer specimens amplified and sequenced for this marker. Four rbcL clades (lineages 1-4) were distinct from each other and from other described species of Martensia based on both phylogenetic position and morphological characters, and are here described as new species: Martensia abbottiae A
