“…The name for this recently described new genus alluded to its southern hemisphere distribution (Saunders et al. ), and here we add to it a species from the Atlantic Ocean and northern hemisphere. In their work, Saunders et al.…”

“…In their work, Saunders et al. (, p. 117) considered K. westii a perforate, polycarpogonial species similar in many characteristics to one of their new Australian species Leiomenia lacunata , but without available DNA from the type locality it was retained in Kallymenia . Among the species that Saunders et al.…”

“…A recent phylogenetic monograph of the diverse red algal family Kallymeniaceae (Gigartinales) provided genetic evidence of a much larger number of genera (Saunders et al. ) than previous known (Schneider and Wynne , , Wynne and Schneider , ). The several new genera elucidated by Saunders et al.…”

“…The several new genera elucidated by Saunders et al. () were part of an “explosion of molecularly assisted taxonomic modifications” that were revealed in an extensive barcode and phylogenetic study of specimens centered in Australia and western Europe. The authors focused mostly on sorting out taxa above the species level in order to present a “contemporary genus‐level taxonomic framework” built on the principle of monophyly for other workers to later fill in species.…”

“…One genus previously placed in synonymy with Kallymenia was resurrected ( Euhymenia ; but see Wynne ), several species were moved to newly described genera removing polyphyletic or paraphyletic groupings, and ten new genera were erected to house them (Saunders et al. ).…”

A molecular survey of red algae collected by technical divers and submersibles from 90 m in the mesophotic zone off the coast of Bermuda revealed three species assignable to the Kallymeniaceae. Two of the species are representative of recently described genera centered in the western Pacific in Australia and New Zealand, Austrokallymenia and Psaromenia and the third from the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic, Nothokallymenia. A phylogenetic analysis of concatenated mitochondrial (COI‐5P) and chloroplast (rbcL) genes, as well as morphological characteristics, revealed that two are shown to be new species with distant closest relatives (N. erosa and Psaromenia septentrionalis), while the third represents a deep water western Atlantic species now moved to an Australasian genus (A. westii).
