Colpomenia Expansa
''Colpomenia'' is a genus of brown macroalgae (or seaweed) in the family Scytosiphonaceae. Taxonomy and Nomenclature ''Colpomenia'' is currently composed of 11 confirmed species with ''Colpomenia sinuosa'' as its type species. Earlier taxonomic placements of the members of this genus have been problematic starting from the ambiguous morphological delineation up until the discovery of the polyphyly within the genus using molecular data. Two significant taxonomic revisions have been started to clarify the polyphyly within the genus. First, was the transfer of all previous members of ''Colpomenia'' with erect, finger-like thalli into the new genus ''Dactylosiphon'' based on morphoanatomical, molecular, and life history observations''.'' Second, was the formal separation of ''Colpomenia tuberculata'' (now ''Encephalophycus tuberculatus'') from the rest of the genus due to the stark differences in its morphology molecular phylogeny.

Stephan Friedrich Ladislaus Endlicher
Stephan Ladislaus Endlicher also known as Endlicher István László (24 June 1804, Pressburg, Bratislava (Pozsony) – 28 March 1849, Vienna) was an Austrian Empire, Austrian botanist, numismatist and Sinologist. He was a director of the Botanical Garden of Vienna. Biography Endlicher studied theology and received minor orders. In 1828 he was appointed to the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, Austrian National Library to reorganize its manuscript collection. Concurrently he studied natural history, in particular botany, and East-Asian languages. In 1836, Endlicher was appointed keeper of the court cabinet of natural history, and in 1840 he became professor at the University of Vienna and director of its Botanical Garden of the University of Vienna, Botanical Garden. He wrote a comprehensive description of the plant kingdom according to a natural system, at the time its most comprehensive description. As proposed by Endlicher, it contained images with text. It was published ...

Polyphyly
A polyphyletic group is an assemblage of organisms or other evolving elements that is of mixed evolutionary origin. The term is often applied to groups that share similar features known as homoplasies, which are explained as a result of convergent evolution. The arrangement of the members of a polyphyletic group is called a polyphyly .. ource for pronunciation./ref> It is contrasted with monophyly and paraphyly. For example, the biological characteristic of warm-bloodedness evolved separately in the ancestors of mammals and the ancestors of birds; "warm-blooded animals" is therefore a polyphyletic grouping. Other examples of polyphyletic groups are algae, C4 photosynthetic plants, and edentates. Many taxonomists aim to avoid homoplasies in grouping taxa together, with a goal to identify and eliminate groups that are found to be polyphyletic. This is often the stimulus for major revisions of the classification schemes. Researchers concerned more with ecology than with system ...
