Abstract

The morphological variability of the geniculate coralline algae Amphiroa beauvoisii, A. rigida, Corallina elongata, C. officinalis, Jania adhaerens and J. rubens from the gulfs of Evoikos, Korinthiakos and Saronikos (Greece) was investigated. External microscopic characters as seen with the scanning electron microscope (SEM) are illustrated: in particular, the organization of intergenicular surfaces; differentiation and superficial aspects of conceptacles (when available); and quantitative characters such as epithallial concavity diameter and variation in the thickness of calcification were examined
