Species
A species () is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. It is the basic unit of Taxonomy (biology), classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology (biology), morphology, behaviour, or ecological niche. In addition, palaeontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. About 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a binomial nomenclature, two-part name, a "binomen". The first part of a binomen is the name of a genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name (zoology), specific name or the specific ...

Red Algae
Red algae, or Rhodophyta (, ; ), make up one of the oldest groups of eukaryotic algae. The Rhodophyta comprises one of the largest Phylum, phyla of algae, containing over 7,000 recognized species within over 900 Genus, genera amidst ongoing taxonomic revisions. The majority of species (6,793) are Florideophyceae, and mostly consist of multicellular, ocean, marine algae, including many notable seaweeds. Red algae are abundant in marine habitats. Approximately 5% of red algae species occur in freshwater environments, with greater concentrations in warmer areas. Except for two coastal cave dwelling species in the asexual class Cyanidiophyceae, no terrestrial species exist, which may be due to an evolutionary bottleneck in which the last common ancestor lost about 25% of its core genes and much of its evolutionary plasticity. Red algae form a distinct group characterized by eukaryotic cells without flagella and centrioles, chloroplasts without external endoplasmic reticulum or unstack ...

Bangiaceae
Bangiaceae is a family of red algae in the order Bangiales. It contains laver, used to make laverbread, and various species in the genus of ''Pyropia'' are used to make nori. Genera Bangiaceae currently contains between 20 and 22 accepted genera, with all but one extant. * ''Bangia'' Lyngbye * †'' Bangiomorpha'' N.J.Butterfield * '' Boreophyllum'' S.C.Lindstrom, N.

Clymene Coleana
''Clymene coleana'', formerly known as ''Porphyra cinnamomea'', is a red alga species in the family Bangiaceae. It is the only species in the monotypic genus ''Clymene.'' This species is endemic to New Zealand. Taxonomy The genus name of ''Clymene'' is named after a Greek mythology nymph, Clymene (mother of Phaethon). Morphology and habitat In winter ''C. coleana'' is grey in colour but in summer it bleaches to a golden colour. It has fine finger like lobes and has cells in a single layer and is monoecious. With '' P. cinnamomea'', '' P. rakiura'' and '' P. virididentata'', this species can be distinguished by morphology, such as the microscopic arrangement of cells along their thallus margin, their thallus shape, size and colour, as well as geographical, ecological and seasonal distribution patterns, and importantly, chromosome numbers, which in this species n = 4. Finally, these four species are distinguished by a particular nucleotide sequence at the 18S rDNA locus Loc ...

Red Algae Genera
Red is the color at the long wavelength end of the visible spectrum of light, next to orange and opposite violet. It has a dominant wavelength of approximately 625–750 nanometres. It is a primary color in the RGB color model and a secondary color (made from magenta and yellow) in the CMYK color model, and is the complementary color of cyan. Reds range from the brilliant yellow-tinged scarlet and vermillion to bluish-red crimson, and vary in shade from the pale red pink to the dark red burgundy. Red pigment made from ochre was one of the first colors used in prehistoric art. The Ancient Egyptians and Mayans colored their faces red in ceremonies; Roman generals had their bodies colored red to celebrate victories. It was also an important color in China, where it was used to color early pottery and later the gates and walls of palaces. In the Renaissance, the brilliant red costumes for the nobility and wealthy were dyed with kermes and cochineal. The 19th century brought ...

Bangiophyceae
Bangiophyceae is a class of red algae that includes the order Bangiales and possibly Goniotrichales. In some classifications it is merged with the Florideophyceae to form the Rhodophyceae. The Bangiophyceae, as defined traditionally, are paraphyletic. Their taxonomic identification has been difficult because of a lack of distinct morphological features, and the presumed morphological plasticity of the species. Molecular tools are required to elucidate the relationships within this assemblage. It is still used by some sources, and defined ''sensu stricto'' (including '' Bangia'' and '' Porphyra'' but not the species included in Florideophyceae Florideophyceae is a class of exclusively multicellular red algae. They were once thought to be the only algae to bear pit connections, but these have since been found in the filamentous stage of the Bangiaceae. They were also thought only to ex ...) is considered a valid clade. Notes References {{Taxonbar, from=Q1349723 ...
