Abstract
The Bostrychietum complex is known as an algal assemblage associated with mangrove roots in tropical and subtropical areas, and it is composed mainly by species of the genera Bostrychia, Catenella, Caloglossa (Rhodophyta), Boodleopsis y Rhizoclonium (Chlorophyta). This review presents an analysis of the taxonomy, phylogeny and ecophysiology of Bostrychia species present in the Colombian Pacific Coast, where taxonomic and morphological studies have concluded that the following Bostrychia morphotypes are present: B. calliptera y B. pinnata (morpho 1), B. moritziana y B. radicans (morpho 2), B. tenella (morpho 3), B. binderi (morpho 4). B. pinnata is considered a synonym of B. calliptera, and B. moritziana and B. radicans are a group with differentiated morphology. The evaluation of nuclear, plastidic and mitochondrial genes, as well as complementary descriptions of Bostrychia taxonomic characters, has determined that the complex is non- monophyletic, that it is taxonomically indistinguishable and that it comprises three evolutionary lineages. Given the high diversity of Bostrychia species in the Colombian Pacific Coast, B. calliptera, B. pinnata, B. radicans, and B. moritziana have been considered cryptic species based on classical taxonomic criteria and phylogenetic relationships found in recent studies. From an ecophysiological point of view, Bostrychetum complex species are continuously exposed to extreme changes inthe light regime, the salinity and the tidal levels. Studies on the behavior of species photosynthesis have analyzed their response before different types of stressing environments. B. calliptera and C. leprieurii photosynthesis rates in water and air have shown their positive activity in both environments. Such physiological response shows their capacity to survive to dessication periods during low tide and it explains the zonation pattern and the algal assamblages associated to mangrove roots. In our review we also present research perspectives to complement these species taxonomic and phylogenetic studies and to evaluate their resistance to intertidal environmental stress in mangrove forests. © 2017.
