RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Sublittoral and deep-water red and brown algae new from the Canary Islands A1 Afonso Carrillo, Julio A1 Reyes, Javier A1 Sansón Acedo, Marta A1 Muñoz, E. A2 BotánicaEcología y Fisiología Vegetal A2 Botánica Marina AB Nine species of sublittoral and deep-water red and brown algae are reported from the Canary Islands for the firsttime. The reports of the Western Atlantic species Gloiocladia atlantica (Searles) R. E. Norris and Rosenvingeaantillarum (P. et H. Crouan) M. J. Wynne are the first from the Eastern Atlantic Ocean. The presence ofFeldmannophycus rayssiae (J. et G. Feldmann) Augier et Boudouresque, Fauchea repens (C. Agardh) Montagneet Bory and Halichrysis depressa (J. Agardh) F. Schmitz, previously known from the Mediterranean Sea and theadjacent Atlantic coasts, place their southernmost known limit of distribution in the Canary Islands. Stypopodium schimperi (Buchinger ex Kçtzing) Verlaque et Boudouresque is reported for the first time in the AtlanticOcean, although it is present in the Mediterranean Sea, probably as a Lessepsian species. The records of thewidely distributed Stylonema cornu-cervi Reinsch, Acrochaetium infestans M. Howe et Hoyt and Spatoglossumschroederi (C. Agardh) Kçtzing were not unexpected. Data concerning morphology, habitat and geographicaldistribution of these species are presented. Observations on the scantly documented sublittoral species Schimmelmannia schousboei(J. Agardh) J. Agardh and Dictyopteris plagiogramma (Montagne) Vickers are also given.In the dioecious Schimmelmannia schousboei, which has been formerly accepted as a doubtful record for theCanary Islands, the reproductive morphology is described including the previously unreported spermatangia.Dictyopteris plagiogramma was recently included in a checklist of Canarian species of Dictyopteris and isdiscussed in detail here.
