Summary: This study analyzed the phylogenetic relationships of Halymenia species from the Indo-Pacific region, and found that most foliose Halymenia species are clustered in a natural assemblage. The study also discovered a new species and revealed that some species have a more restricted distribution than previously thought. Additionally, the widely distributed Halymenia dilatata may include cryptic species that require further investigation.

Summary: This study reveals a new species, G. khanjanapajiae, in Thailand through morphological and genetic analyses. The species can be distinguished by its dentate blade margin, deep spermatangial conceptacles, and abundant nutritive filaments. Phylogenetically, it is closely related to G. spinulosa from Taiwan. The research highlights the ongoing discovery of Gracilaria diversity and distribution in the tropical Indo-Pacific.

Summary: A new dematiaceous hyphomycete, Wenhsuisporus taiwanensis, occurring on decaying wood submerged in a freshwater stream of Taiwan, is described based on morphological and molecular data. It produces slimy masses of hyaline cylindrical phialoconidia from conidiogenous cells in the superficial hyphal network, accompanied by dark, erect subulate setae.

Summary: In this study, we described two new species of the genus Kumanoa - K. taiwanensis and K. yuanyangensis. Through molecular evidence and morphological characteristics, we confirmed the establishment of these two new species. This study expands the known diversity of Kumanoa and provides new insights into their biogeography.

Summary: A new species of Fredericqia from the Choshi Peninsula, Japan has been described based on morphological and molecular analyses, with unique characteristics such as a flattened incurved thallus and marginal proliferations. Molecular analysis indicates that this new species, named Fredericqia chiharae, belongs to the genus Fredericqia and is distinct from other species within the genus.

Summary: Examination of fungal specimens collected in the Atlantic rain forest ecosystems of Northeast Brazil revealed many potentially new species of Glomeromycota, with two closely related fungi forming glomerocarps. Phylogenetic analyses indicated that these two fungi represent two divergent undescribed species in the family Glomeraceae, with one placed in the genus Dominikia and the other in a sister clade to the genus Kamienskia.

Summary: We analyzed sequence data of rbcL and COI in Schizymenia specimens from the Sea of Okhotsk and Sea of Japan. A new species, S. tamarae sp. nov., was discovered in the northwestern Sea of Japan. Morphological and genetic analyses confirmed that the previously described S. jonssonii is a synonym of S. dubyi var. palmata, which was originally described from the Kuril Islands. The taxon was synonymized with Neoabbottiella valentinae. We propose renaming it as Schizymenia valentinae comb. nov. The known Schizymenia species along the Russian coast are S. valentinae and S. tamarae.

Summary: This study aims to understand the phylogeny and diversity of Gracilariaceae in Chinese waters by constructing a DNA sequence database. Through the analysis of rbcL and COI-5P genes, 19 Gracilaria and 3 Gracilariopsis species were identified, including a new diminutive species Gracilaria tsengii sp. nov. and a new record species G. perplexa.

Summary: This study describes two new species, Endoplura jejuensis and E. koreana, from Korea based on molecular and morphological analyses. Phylogenetic analysis shows that they are closely related to E. aurea from Japan. E. jejuensis is characterized by small light to dark brown thalli, while E. koreana has larger olive or yellowish-brown thalli.

Summary: Two new species of Yonagunia (Y. robusta sp. nov. and Y. stipitata sp. nov.) were identified based on rbcL sequence analyses and their vegetative and reproductive structures were documented. Yonagunia robusta is the largest species found in Taiwan and differs from a previously described species. Yonagunia stipitata is limited to Orchid Island. The study highlights the high species diversity of Yonagunia in Taiwan.

Summary: A new species, Fragilaria shirshovii sp. nov., was identified and described based on molecular and morphological investigations. The species was isolated from desalinated water masses in the Gulf of Ob, where river and marine waters mix. The study analyzed the morphology of the species using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The importance rating for this article is 8 out of 10.

Summary: This study reports the diversity of Piptoporellus taxa in Taiwan and introduces a new species, Piptoporellus taiwanensis. The novel taxon shows distinct morphological and molecular characteristics compared to other Piptoporellus species, and contains significant amounts of polysaccharides, polyphenols, and triterpenoids.

Summary: A multigene molecular phylogeny was conducted to study the genus Phymatolithon. The study revealed the polyphyletic grouping of two monophyletic clades within the Hapalidiales. As a result, a new genus, Phymatolithopsis, was established, consisting of three species. Phymatolithopsis is closely related to Mesophyllum and is distinct from Phymatolithon and boreal species assigned to Lithothamnion. Morpho-anatomical characteristics were used to differentiate Phymatolithopsis from Phymatolithon, including the origin of conceptacle primordia and the distribution of gonimoblast filaments in carposporangial conceptacles.

Summary: The first systematic molecular study of Ulva species in Brazil revealed that previously reported species were misidentified and confirmed the presence of a new species. Two new occurrences for Brazil were also discovered, expanding the geographic distribution of these species.

Summary: Using Dictyotales as a model, this study investigates the historical biogeographical and diversification patterns of brown seaweeds. Results show that Dictyotales originated in the Middle Jurassic and reached peak diversity in the Central Indo-Pacific. Diversification rates were generally higher in tropical regions, with different clades driven by different processes.
