Resumen
MATEO-CID, Luz Elena; MENDOZA-GONZALEZ, A. Catalina y SEARLES, Richard B.. The Tribe Callithamnieae (Ceramiaceae, Rhodophyta) in the Atlantic Coast of Mexico. Hidrobiológica [online]. 2003, vol.13, n.1, pp.39-50. ISSN 0188-8897.
Bibliographic revision of species from the Tribe Callithamnieae (Ceramiaceae, Rhodophyta) previously recorded from the Atlantic Mexico's shores was realized. We also checked herbarium's specimens housed at different herbaria. In addition, some samples of Callithamnieae were carried out in twenty localities at the Atlantic coast of Mexico from 1983 to 2000. Analysis of this information showed us that this tribe contains three genera and five species. The best-represented genus of this Tribe was Aglaothamnion Feldmann-Mazoyer with three species. A. cordatum (Børgesen) Feldmann-Mazoyer is recorded from Cozumel island, Quintana Roo to Tampico, Tamaulipas, while A. boergesenii (Aponte et Ballantine) L' Hardy-Halos et Rueness and A. herveyi (M. Howe) Aponte, Ballantine et Norris only were found in the Caribbean Sea. The distribution of Callithamnion Lyngbye and Seirospora Harvey, with one species each, is restricted to Quintana Roo and Veracruz. The taxa of this Tribe are not easily noticed because of their epiphytic habit, filamentous forms and small size. Morphological descriptions, drawings, distributional range, reproductive stage, substrate, tidal level, wave exposure, keys for determinations and specimens examinated are included.
