Phaeosaccionaceae
''Phaeosaccion'' is a genus of algae with monostromatic tubular to saccate thalli, up to long and to wide. It is the sole genus in the family Phaeosaccionaceae. It is olive brown and resembles young plants of ''Scytosiphon''. The sole species in the genus is ''Phaeosaccion collinsii'', a species of marine algae. It was first identified in a publication by W.G. Farlow in the article ''Notes on New England algae'' published in ''Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club'' in 1882. It was named in honor of Frank Shipley Collins.Makers of American Botany, Harry Baker Humphrey, Ronald Press Company, Library of Congress Card Number 61-18435 ''Phaeosacchion collinsii'' is red listed in Iceland as a vulnerable species A vulnerable species is a species which has been Conservation status, categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as being threatened species, threatened with extinction unless the circumstances that are threatened species, ...

Ochrophyta
Ochrophytes, also known as heterokontophytes or stramenochromes, are a phylum of algae. They are the photosynthetic stramenopiles, a group of eukaryotes, organisms with a cell nucleus, characterized by the presence of two unequal flagella, one of which has tripartite hairs called mastigonemes. In particular, they are characterized by photosynthetic organelles or plastids enclosed by four membranes, with membrane-bound compartments called thylakoids organized in piles of three, chlorophyll ''a'' and ''c'' as their photosynthetic pigments, and additional pigments such as β-carotene and xanthophylls. Ochrophytes are one of the most diverse lineages of eukaryotes, containing ecologically important algae such as brown algae and diatoms. They are classified either as phylum Ochrophyta, Heterokontophyta or as subphylum Ochrophytina withing phylum Gyrista. Their plastids are of red algal origin.
