Chnoospora is one of the genera in Scytosiphonaceae with many taxonomic changes, comprising only two currently taxonomically accepted species. Chnoospora minima, its type species, has the widest distribution range and is characterized by a simple morphology with cylindrical or flattened thalli and dichotomous branching. On the Mexican coasts, its d...

The family Gracilariaceae is the most diverse group in the order Gracilariales, comprising 243 taxonomically accepted agarophyte species. Gracilaria stands out as the most representative genus due to its species richness with the significant overlap of characters. Given its economic potential, a robust set of discriminative characters is essential,...

Abstract Algae constitute a non-natural group of organisms that share morphological, physiological and ecological characteristics due to a complex shared evolutionary history. They live attached to a substrate or floating in a column of fresh or marine water. These latter are classified into macro and microalgae, whose current diversity recorded in...

Red algae are the most conspicuous component in algal drifts that periodically arrive on the coasts of the Yucatan Peninsula. Given the presence of agars and carrageenans in their cell wall and the synthesis of secondary metabolites that act as antitumors or antioxidants, most of these species are highly valued in the international market. However,...

Species recognition in algae is often extremely difficult due to the paucity of morphological characters and high environmental plasticity. If environment is important to morphology, then related species growing in sympatry are good candidates to discover diagnostic characters. We studied algae collected in sympatric populations in tropical Atlanti...
