Bangiophyceae is a class of
identification has been difficult because of a lack of distinct morphological features, and the presumed morphological plasticity of the species. Molecular tools are required to elucidate the relationships within this assemblage.It is still used by some sources, and defined sensu stricto (including Bangia and Porphyra but not the species included in Florideophyceae) is considered a valid clade.[2]
