Solotvynia, a New Coccoid Lineage among the Ulvophyceae (Chlorophyta) [PDF]
MicroorganismsCoccoid Ulvophyceae are often overlooked despite their wide distribution. They occur as epiphytes on marine seaweeds or grow on stones or on shells of mussels and corals. Most of the species are not easy to identify based solely on morphology.

A comparative test of the gamete dynamics theory for the evolution of anisogamy in Bryopsidales green algae [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Gamete dynamics theory proposes that anisogamy arises by disruptive selection for gamete numbers versus gamete size and predicts that female/male gamete size (anisogamy ratio) increases with adult size and complexity.
