| Popis: | Rindifilum gen. nov. Algae typically have a heterotrichous thallus. Most of the thallus are prostrate and the erect or semi-erect system remains poorly developed. Both the prostrate and upright structures are distinctly irregular in shape. A prostrate very dense system of branched filaments gives rise to an upright system of thinner, also much branched, uniseriate filaments. Prostrate system is formed from rounded/spherical cells often gathered into cell packages. Cells are uninucleate, possess a parietal chloroplast and one pyrenoid. Asexual reproduction by two or four autospores. Sexual reproduction was not observed. Differs from other genera by 18S rRNA and tuf A sequences. Moreover, this genus differs in morphology by the combination of features as the “pear-shaped cells” that develop directly into a “hammer-shaped filament” (Fig. 2 I-L). TYPE SPECIES. — Rindifilum ramosum sp. nov. ETYMOLOGY. — This genus is named in honour of Dr Fabio Rindi, who contributed to the knowledge of green algae, including the order Ulvales.
