Description Red algae with unicellular, pseudofilamentous or filamentous bodies inhabiting mesophilic freshwater and marine environments. Members of this group do not develop macroscopic, pseudoparenchymatous or parenchymatous seaweed-type thalli as those of the Eurhodophytina; variable plastid morphologies and organellar associations; plastid genomes with a large number of introns and a quadripartite organization where the rRNA operon-containing inverted repeats are divergent relative to the small single copy region.
