Happy to share our publication with a new tropical genus and species : “ Phylogenetic analysis of the Cladophora coelothrix complex, including the description of the new genus Leliaertia”

Harley et al. (2012) reviewed the effects of climate change on #seaweed populations, communities, and ecosystems. They also suggested research priorities to address unknowns that limited predictions a decade ago.

#SeaweedDay
Happy #SeaweedDay!
These red, green, and brown #algae play important roles in supporting marine habitats, mitigating climate change, and providing food.
Over the next week, we will share 5 of the most highly-cited #seaweed papers published in #JPhycol over the years.
Vondrášková et al. have modernized 3 classically described cyanobacterial generitypes.
Discover how they obtained an epitype for a species that hadn’t been reported in a century and revealed insights into the taxonomy of an eagle-killing #cyanobacteria: https://t.co/G2OUFqYDSW
DNA #sequencing has rapidly improved taxonomy of #benthic#cyanobacteria. Using a polyphasic approach, Moretto et al. have added a new genus to the growing list.
Read about Floridanema—a taxa whose sequences were originally classified as Phormidium—here: https://t.co/UbN4XV64f0
Sequencing tufts of red #algae has revealed some new kids on the rocks!
Brito & Cassano describe three new Brazilian species in the cryptic Bryocladia scopulorum complex.
What other members of this tiny taxa are we overlooking? https://t.co/jY8ddBgP83
#Algae had billions of years to diversify into 14 phyla. You probably have less than 100 years to learn about them all.
Enter: “The algal phyla”, #JPhycol Perspective series where experts introduce algal lineages in an accessible way.

Our findings increase the previously known diversity of Bryocladia scopulorum from 12 to 15 species and highlight the need to explore the diversity of small species. The complete research is available now at @JPhycology
Three new species of Bryocladia from Brazilian coast!🌊
In this paper we investigate the Bryocladia diversity in Brazilian coast using morphological and phylogenetic data. 🔬🧬🌱
