해양 생물은 중요한 생물자원으로 인식되고 있다. 특히, 해조류 자원은 식용, 유용 유기물질 추출, 바이오연료 생산, 탄소 흡수 등과 같은 많은 잠재적인 이용 가능성을 갖는다. 한국산 자생생물 조사의 일환으로 Halymenia latifolia P.L. Crouan et H.M. Crouan ex Kutzing, Grateloupia livida (Harvey) Yamada and Hypnea boergesenii Tanaka의 3종이 동해 연안에서 채집되었다. 본 3종에 대한 형태학 및 분류학적 주해가 본 연구에서 제시된다. 이 중에서 Halymenia latifolia는 한국산 미기록 종으로 여기서 처음으로 보고된다.

Morphology and molecular phylogeny of a red algal species, Hypnea flexicaulis that is recently described from Japan, were investigated based on 23 collections from Korea (21), Taiwan (1), and the Philippines (1). Hypnea flexicaulis has percurrent axes with flexuous, antler-like branches which have wide branching angles, and abaxially curved ultimate branchlets. In order to study DNA divergence and phylogenetic relationships of the species, we determined plastid rbcL and mitochondrial cox1 sequences from the 23 collections. All 21 specimens from five different locations in Korea were almost identical to H. flexicaulis from Japan in rbcL sequences. Although there was a difference of three to five base pairs (bp) between samples from Korea and the Philippines or between the Philippines and Taiwan, Bayesian analyses of the rbcL data showed that all specimens from Korea, Japan, the Philippines, and Taiwan were strongly monophyletic. However, it is interesting that specimens from the Philippines differed by 31-34 base pairs in mitochondrial cox1 gene from those of materials from Korea and Taiwan, which differed by one to seven bp in rbcL between them. Although H. boergesenii is different from H. flexicaulis in having many antler-like branchlets, both appeared as sisters in all analyses of the rbcL data. This is the first report of H. flexicaulis from Korea based on morphology, rbcL, and cox1 gene sequences.
