Abstract

This study is part of a taxonomic survey of the benthic marine algae, carried out by Universidade Federal da Bahia. Based on detailed morphological and anatomical analyses were recognized and illustrate nine taxa: D. bartayresiana J. V. Lamouroux, D. cervicornis Kützing f. cervicornis, D. cervicornis f. pseudohamata (Cribb) De Clerck & Coppejans. D. ciliolata Sander ex Kützing, D. crispata J. V. Lamouroux, D. jamaicensis W. R. Taylor, D. menstrualis (Hoyt) Schnetter, Hornig & Weber-Pcukert, D. mertensii (Martius) Kützing e D. pulchella Hörnig & Schnetter. Reference to the original description, basionym, morphological description, geographical distribution along the Brazilian littoral, including map and taxonomical comments was presented for each taxon studied. Dichotomic keys for identification for the species, and comparative table for taxons is also presented. D. crispata is recorded in the first time for the Brazil.
