OverviewNongeniculate coralline red algae, which constitute one of the most widely distributed and ecologically important groups of marine benthic algae, are the focus of this comprehensive treatment covering both fossil and non-fossil genera. Keys for identification of genera and 82 plates of photographic figures are included. Detailed analyses of diagnostic criteria, general descriptions of morphology and anatomy, and relevant taxonomic literature are also provided, along with a glossary of technical terminology, an extensive bibliography, and full nomenclature documentation.
