| Abstract: | Abbott , Isabella A. (Hopkins Marine Station of Stanford U., Pacific Grove, Calif.), and Maxwell S. Doty . Studies in the Helminthocladiaceae. II. Trichogloeopsis . Amer. Jour. Bot. 47(8) : 632–640. Illus. 1960.—A new genus, Trichogloeopsis , in the Helminthocladiaceae of the red algal order Nemalionales is described. Its diagnostic features are the possession of sterile rhizoids produced by the gonimoblast, and the fact that the carpogonial branch is a modified vegetative filament. The type species of the genus is T. hawaiiana from the Hawaiian Islands. Two species of Liagora, L. pedicellata from the Bahamas and L. mucosissima from the Ryukyus, are transferred to the new genus. |
