Caulerpaceae
Caulerpaceae is a family of green algae in the order Bryopsidales Bryopsidales is an order of green algae, in the class Ulvophyceae. It is a diverse group of mostly marine macroalgae. Characteristics The thallus is filamentous, highly branched, and may be packed into a mass. It is coenocytic, having multi-nu .... Caulerpaceae is considered to be a widespread and vital structural component of many Cenozoic-recent reefs. It is estimated to be responsible for approximately 25–30% of CaCO3 in Neogene fossil reefs. References Ulvophyceae families {{Ulvophyceae-stub ...

Pilbara
The Pilbara () is a large, dry, sparsely populated regions of Western Australia, region in the north of Western Australia. It is known for its Indigenous Australians, Aboriginal people; wealth disparity; its ancient landscapes; the prevailing red earth; and its vast mineral deposits, in particular iron ore. It is also a global biodiversity hotspot for subterranean fauna. Definitions of the Pilbara region At least two important but differing definitions of "the Pilbara" region exist. Administratively it is one of the nine regions of Western Australia defined by the ''Regional Development Commissions Act 1993''; the term also refers to the Pilbara shrublands bioregion (which differs in extent) under the Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA). Geography The Pilbara region, as defined by the Regional Development Commissions Act 1993 and administered for economic development purposes by the Pilbara Development Commission, has an estimated population of 61,68 ...

Caulerpa
''Caulerpa'' is a genus of seaweeds in the family Caulerpaceae (among the green algae). They are unusual because they consist of only one cell with many cell nucleus, nuclei, making them among the biggest single cells in the world. Referring to the crawling growth habit#Structure, habit of its thallus, the name means 'stem (that) creeps', from the Ancient Greek ' (, ‘stalk’) and ' (, ‘to creep’). Taxonomy and nomenclature First described by Jean Vincent Lamouroux in 1809, ''Caulerpa'' is the only genus under the family Caulerpaceae, from the order Bryopsidales, class Ulvophyceae, and phylum Chlorophyta. Through the use of ''tuf''A gene sequencing, it was revealed that ''Pseudochlorodesmis'' F. Børgesen was a sister clade of ''Caulerpa''. Cremen et al. proposed a new classification scheme in Bryopsidales, wherein Caulerpaceae and Halimedaceae were described as sister families. Species discrimination via morphology-based identification is often hampered by the high degr ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
