Özet

This paper contains taxonomic studies on the red algae (Rhodophyceae), brown algae (Phaeophyceae) and green algae (Chlorophyceae) of the Ayvalik (Aegean Sea, Turkey). Sampling were done at the upper-infralittoral zone between March 2002 and August 2004. The material was collected with snorkeling and SCUBA, and specimens were preserved in 4% formaldehyde in sea water and deposited in the Department of Biology, Celal Bayar University. In this study, two species of Rhodophyceae are reported from the eastern Aegean Sea (Turkey) for the first time: Botryocladia madagascariensis Feldmann-Mazoyer (Rhodymeniales, Rhodymeniaceae) and Monosporus pedicellatus (Smith) Solier (Ceramiales, Ceramiaceae).
