A unique sessile loricate euglenid, Lepocinclis loricata sp. nov. (Euglenophyta, Phacaceae), from South Africa: Evolutionary implications

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we describe Lepocinclis loricata sp. nov. (Phacaceae), a sessile loricate euglenid that differs from all known loricate taxa by its unique combination of the presence of a lorica, monad morphology, sessile habit, and phylogenetic position within the Phacaceae. Populations of this species inhabit two turbid, silt‐rich waterbodies,

Are integrative systematic tools efficient toward unraveling species diversity with the genus Jania (Corallinaceae, Rhodophyta)?

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The articulated genus Jania currently comprises 54 accepted species, making it the fourth most speciose genus among corallines, following Lithophyllum, Amphiroa, and Lithothamnion. Unlike these other genera, Jania is relatively easy to identify at a generic rank. However, morpho‐anatomical characters are insufficiently discriminant for species

Epitypification of Merismopedia tranquilla (Cyanobacteria) prompts phylogenetic reassessment of the genus and the description of two morphologically similar genera

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Merismopedia is morphologically characterized by its distinctive colony arrangement yet exhibits considerable variability among species. Recent studies suggested that Merismopedia is polyphyletic, and its most likely true lineage was provisionally placed within the Microcystaceae. However, the available molecular data for most of the

How do I publish the name of a new species of algae? A basic guide

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract A basic guide to the requirements of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants for the publication of a valid name of new species (and infraspecific taxa) of living algae is provided. It is intended to aid phycologists so that an accurate inventory of the world's algal diversity is achieved.

Integrative taxonomy supports DNA barcoding in revealing an abundant cryptic species in the United States Coastal Plain

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We present the most densely sampled phylogeny of Carex section Lupulinae to date (107 specimens) and describe herein a new cryptic species for science from the southern United States, which is locally abundant and found in well‐explored and densely populated areas. Combining DNA sequences with morphometric data obtained from 299 samples, we Demonstrate
