Nomenclatural note
It has been suggested by Silva (1991: 167) that because phycologists “...are being asked to abandon such well-known names as...Helminthora divaricata...they eagerly await the publication of Cremade’s thesis with the documentation and discussion supporting these new combinations”. - (11 May 2006) - G.M. Guiry
