Red Algae
Red algae, or Rhodophyta (, ; ), are one of the oldest groups of eukaryotic algae. The Rhodophyta also comprises one of the largest phyla of algae, containing over 7,000 currently recognized species with taxonomic revisions ongoing. The majority of species (6,793) are found in the Florideophyceae (class), and mostly consist of multicellular, marine algae, including many notable seaweeds. Red algae are abundant in marine habitats but relatively rare in freshwaters. Approximately 5% of red algae species occur in freshwater environments, with greater concentrations found in warmer areas. Except for two coastal cave dwelling species in the asexual class Cyanidiophyceae, there are no terrestrial species, which may be due to an evolutionary bottleneck in which the last common ancestor lost about 25% of its core genes and much of its evolutionary plasticity. The red algae form a distinct group characterized by having eukaryotic cells without flagella and centrioles, chloroplasts that l ...

Gloiopeltis Furcata
''Gloiopeltis furcata,'' commonly known as glueweed, jelly moss and fukuro-funori (Japan), is a marine algae, marine alga that is widely distributed in the North Pacific Ocean, along the shorelines of China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, and the Pacific shores of Russia; and from the Aleutian Islands south to Baja California. ''G. furcata'' has long been utilized as a food source in Asia, where it is also used as a Sizing#Textile warp sizing, sizing material in silk and other textiles. ''G. furcata'' is also a raw material for textile Binder (material), binders. Studies show that extracts of ''G. furcata'' inhibit the growth of several human cancer cell lines, and can significantly lower blood glucose levels. ''G. furcatas thallus is reddish brown to golden yellow, up to 5 cm (2 in) tall. The plant appears black when dry. The cylindrical branches are smooth. The basal crust is perennial, and produces a new crop of branches every year.

Gigartinales
Gigartinales is a red algae order in the class Florideophyceae Florideophyceae is a class of red algae. They were once thought to be the only algae to bear pit connections, but these have since been found in the filamentous stage of the Bangiaceae. They were also thought only to exhibit apical growth, but t .... Systematics References Red algae orders {{red algae-stub ...
