| Abstract |
The subclass Corallinophycidae is the only group of red algae characterized by the presence of calcite crystals in their cell walls. Except for the Rhodogorgonales, the remaining orders - collectively called corallines - are diverse and widely distributed, having calcified cell walls and highly variable morphology. Corallines constitute the group with the richest fossil record among marine algae. In the present study, we investigate the evolutionary history of the subclass Corallinophycidae and provide a time-calibrated phylogeny to date the radiation of the crown group and its main lineages. We use a multi-locus dataset with an extensive taxon sampling and comprehensive collection of fossil records, carefully assigned to corallines, to reconstruct a time-calibrated phylogeny of this subclass. Our molecular clock analyses suggest that the onset of crown group diversification of Corallinophycidae started in the Lower Jurassic and sped up in the Lower Cretaceous. The divergence time of the oldest order Sporolithales is estimated in the Lower Cretaceous followed by the remaining orders. We discuss the long period of more than 300 million years between the early Paleozoic records attributed to the stem group of Corallinophycidae and the radiation of the crown group. Our inferred phylogeny yields three highly-supported suprageneric lineages for the order Corallinales; we confirm the family Mastophoraceae and amend circumscription of the families Corallinaceae and Lithophyllaceae. These three families are distinguished by a combination of vegetative and reproductive features. In light of the phylogeny, we discuss the evolutionary trends of eleven morphological characters. In addition, we also highlight homoplasious characters and selected autapomorphies emerging in particular taxa. |
