A FIRST RECORD OF THE GENUS COTTONIELLA BORGESEN (CERAMIALES, RHODOPHYTA) FROM LIBYA
Abstract
This is a first report of the occurance of the genus Cottoniella Borgesen from the cost of Libya. The number of pericenral cells in the specimens are 4-6 and not only 4 as in most species of the genus. The lateral pericentral cell is first formed and the development of monosiphonous filaments is endogenous as wel as exogenous. The Libyan specimen is therefore designated as Cottoniella libyensis Nizam & Godeh sp. nova
