| Abstract | Several lineages of raphe-bearing diatoms possess a "stauros," which is a transverse, usually thickened area free of pores across the center of the valve. It has been suggested that this structure has evolved several times across the raphid diatoms, but we have noticed similarities beyond the stauros between two marine genera-Craspedostauros and Staurotropis-in the structure of their pore occlusions. We have isolated, cultured and extracted DNA from several strains of both genera to infer the phylogenetic relationship between these taxa, as well as test the suggested relationship of Craspedostauros to Achnanthes and Mastogloia based on plastid morphology. DNA sequence data (nuclear-encoded rRNA SSU, plastid-encoded rbcL and psbC) suggest that, except for Mastogloia, these genera are closely-related, though not sister taxa. The DNA phylogeny also suggests that the Mastogloiales are not monophyletic, with clades containing Achnanthes and Craspedostauros sister to clades containing taxa in the Bacillariales. Using evidence from molecular and morphological data, we describe the following new taxa: Craspedostauros alyoubii and C. paradoxa from the Red Sea and Guam, respectively; Staurotropis khiyamii and S. americana from the Red Sea and the Gulf of Mexico, respectively; and Dreuhlago cuneata n. gen., n. sp. from Guam. |
