摘要:

珊瑚藻是海洋生态系统中一类重要的钙化红藻, 且具有海洋初级生产力和生态服务功能, 已经成为当前热点研究生物之一。目前, 世界各国有关珊瑚藻的种类、分布等正在逐渐明晰, 而我国海域珊瑚藻的分布研究尚属空白, 许多种类的多样性信息也需要更新。中国珊瑚藻本底信息的匮乏也阻碍了我国在各个层面上开展珊瑚藻研究与保护工作。为此, 文章对中国海域珊瑚藻种类和分布现状进行了汇总与分析。结果表明, 中国现有珊瑚藻种类记录162种, 合并同物异名种后共计112种, 隶属于10科26属, 约占全球珊瑚藻种类数的15%; 其中大陆有79种, 台湾岛66种, 香港10种。我国珊瑚藻的分布从渤海到南海均有分布, 呈现出明显的热带与亚热带分布特征; 其中辽宁、山东、浙江、福建、广东和香港海域记载较少(<20种), 而台湾岛、海南岛和三沙海域则较多(>30种)。研究能为明确我国珊瑚藻的种类、数量及分布特征等方面提供良好的参考资料。

Abstract:

Coralline algae are a group of calcified red algae of importance in many marine ecosystems, with significant roles in primary productivity and ecological functions, and are increasingly a focal group for research. Globally, species description and distribution of coralline algae are being gradually resolved, but within China, there is a lack of a national-scale summary and there is an urgent need to update knowledge of species diversity. This lack of background information seriously hinders national programs of research and conservation for coralline algae. In this paper, we analyze and summarize the state of knowledge on the diversity and distribution of coralline algae in China. Although a total of 155 species of coralline algae have been recorded in China, combining synonyms reduces this count to 105 species; they belong to 10 families and 26 genera, and account for 15% of accepted coralline algae species worldwide. The distribution of coralline algae ranges from the Bohai Sea to the South China Sea, showing features typical of distributions across tropical and subtropical regions. Relatively few species have been recorded from Liaoning, Shandong, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Hong Kong (less than 20 species in each region), while more species have been recorded for Taiwan, Hainan Island and Sansha regions (more than 30 species in each region). This study provides a good reference for determining species and distribution characteristics for coralline algae in China.
