Abstract

We made a taxonomic study of representatives of Anadyomene occurring off the coast of Bahia State, Brazil. Six species were identified: A. lacerata, A. linkiana, A. pavonina, A. rhizoidifera, A. saldanhae and A. stellata. This is the first report of A. rhizoidifera since the original description of the species. Non-birefringent proteinaceous crystalline inclusions in the form of tetrahedrons were recorded for the first time in the genus. Fertile thalli of A. saldanhae and A. stellata were also encountered for the first time along the Brazilian coast. A. stellata has the widest distribution along the coast of Bahia State; it was found from the intertidal region to depths of 100 m. A. rhizoidifera occurred in only a single, intertidal collection. A. lacerata, A. linkiana, A. pavonina and A. saldanhae occurred only in the near-shore zone at a minimum depth of 20 m. Detailed descriptions, illustrations and comparisons with related taxa are provided.
