Florideae

Florideophyceae, demoted to subclass Florideae in some classification systems, is a class of red algae, estimated to make up about 95% of all known red algae species.[3] It is sometimes merged with the Bangiophyceae into the Rhodophyceae, leaving the subclass Florideae in use.[4] They were once thought to be the only algae to bear pit connections,[5] but these have since been found in the filamentous stage of the Bangiaceae.[6]

"Florideae" from Ernst Haeckel's Kunstformen der Natur, 1904
Scientific classification
(unranked): Archaeplastida
Division: Rhodophyta

"Florideophyceae" is still used by some authorities.[7]

Once thought only to exhibit apical growth, some genera grow by intercalary growth.[6] Most, but not all, genera have three phases to the life cycle.[6]

Classification
A Laurencia red alga from Hawaii

There are various classification schemes; see red algae. One option is to use the following:

Subclass Hildenbrandiophycidae

Subclass Nemaliophycidae

Subclass Corallinophycidae

The subclass Corallinophycidae was introduced in 2007.[8]

Subclass Ahnfeltiophycidae
  • Ahnfeltiales
  • Pihiellales

Subclass Rhodymeniophycidae

According to molecular clock analysis, Florideophyceae diverged from other red algae about 943 (817–1,049) million years ago. It split into Hildenbrandiophycidae ca. 781 (681–879) mya, Nemaliophycidae ca. 661 (597–736) mya and Corallinophycidae ca. 579 (543–617) mya, and ca. 508 (442–580) mya the split between Ahnfeltiophycidae and Rhodymeniophycidae occurred.[9]

gollark: So writing files might be not good.
gollark: The main issue is that it can't rewrite BLOBs stored in a table bigger than they were initially.
gollark: SQLite's actually quite fast, at least for smaller files.
gollark: You'd have to actually implement a filesystem layer on top of the underlying relational database structure, but that wouldn't be extremely hard.
gollark: I have not actually tried this. It should work okay, as long as you can somehow split up the WAL and main data thing.
