Neopyropia is a disputed[2] genus of foliose red algae of the family Bangiaceae described in 2020.[1]

Species

[edit]

As of 2024, the genus contains 12 confirmed species and 11 unconfirmed species.[1][3]

Confirmed

[edit]

Unconfirmed

[edit]

These species are noted in recent scientific journals but not WoRMS. Four species listed below have not been formally described as of 2022.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The most recent consensus is that Neopyropia yezoensis belongs in Neopyropia (L.-E.Yang & J.Brodie, 2020), however WoRMS documents both this species and Pyropia yezoensis, its previous classification, separately.
