The Water-soluble Pigments of the Red Alga, Lenormandia prolifera

Abstract
The red alga Lenormandia prolifera (C. AG.) J. AG. (Rhodomelaceae: Amansia group) contains the red pigment floridorubin in addition to R-phycoerythrin. The pigments of species of the Amansia group previously reported as containing only floridorubin should thus be reinvestigated. Since two other genera of the Amansia group contain floridorubin, the pigments of the remaining members should be examined.
