Ecological significance
Located in Freshwater
HELPFUL: Larger types are seaweed that are the base of the food web for marine life
HARMFUL: Red Tide – Algae Bloom Production of natural toxins, depletion of
dissolved oxygen

Examples
From a small group called glaucophytes
Moss – Archaeplastida glincola
Red Algae Under the surface of salt bodies of water

Evolutionary significance
They form a paraphyletic group
The chloroplast have 2 membranes – developed directly from endosymbiotic Cyanobacteria
