Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

Marine macro algae present along the coastal belt of Mutyalammapalem beach was studied. A total of 28 species were identified in three seasons during 2012-2013. Most of the Chlorophyceae members were present throughout the year while Brown algal members and some of the Rhodophyceae were reported during the winter season only. Maximum number of marine algal species was reported in the winter season. Higher valves of the biomass reported for the species such as Amphiroa fragilissima (14.2 g/m²) Gracilaria corticata (14.1 g/m²) and Ulva fasciata (9.2 g/m²) and minimum biomass values were reported for the species Bangiopsis subsimplex (0.3 g/m²), Wrangelia argus (0.3 g/m²) and Chnoospora minima (0.4 g/m²)
