Abstract

The genus Sargassum C. Agardh (Sargassaceae, Fucales), despite considerable research efforts, is still one of the most systematically complex and problematic genera of Phaeophyta. The marine algal flora of Iran received little attention than other marine water bodies. This paper describe 7 species as Sargassum new records along the Iranian coasts including Sargassum baccularia  (Mertens) C. A. Agardh, S. binderi Sonder, S. gemmiphorum Tseng et Lu, S. longifructum Tseng et Lu, S. henslowianum C. Agardh, S. boveanum J. Agardh var. aterrimum  Grunow and S. spinuligerum Sonder. The more consistent morphological characters for each species were recognized and these characters include: Holdfast shape, length/width leaves, leaves margin and apex, vesicles and receptacles shape.The most common species were S. spinuligerum, S. baccularia, S. henslowianum and S. longifructum distributed widely in Sistan va Baluchestanprovinceand S. binderi, S. boveanum var atterimum restricted to Bandar Langeh and Bushehr province, respectively.

Abstract [Persian]

جنس Sargassum C. Agardh متعلق به جلبک‌های قهوه‌ای بوده که علیرغم مطالعات متعدد، یکی از مهمترین جنس‌های پیچیده از نظر سیستماتیک محسوب می‌شود. فلور جلبک‌های ایران نسبت به سایر آبزیان کمتر مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. در این مقاله، 7 گزارش جدید گونه‌های سارگاسوم شامل Sargassum baccularia  (Mertens) C. A. Agardh, S. binderi Sonder, S. gemmiphorum Tseng et Lu, S. longifructum Tseng et Lu, S. henslowianum C. Agardh, S. boveanum J. Agardh var. aterrimum  Grunow , S. spinuligerum Sonder  گزارش شده است که صفات مهم در شناسایی این گونه‌ها شامل، شکل هولدفست، طول و عرض و حاشیه و راس برگ‌ها، شکل وزیکول‌ها و رسپتاکل‌ها می‌باشند. بیشترین گونه‌ها در استان سیستان و بلوچستان شامل S. spinuligerum, S. baccularia, S. henslowianum  S. longifructum  وکمترین گونه‌ها شامل  S. binderi, S. boveanum var atterimum در بندر لنگه و بوشهر پراکنش داشتند.
