  abstract = {{T}he {S}argassum subgenera {B}actrophycus and {A}rthrophycus were considered to be geographically restricted to the northern and southern hemispheres, respectively. {P}hylogenetic analyses of 19 {S}argassum subgenus {B}actrophycus species and eight {S}argassum subgenus {A}rthrophycus species, based on a concatenated dataset of the loci {ITS}-2, cox3 and the rbc{L}-{S} spacer, showed that they formed a single clade, with {A}rthrophycus species nested within {B}actrophycus section {H}alochloa. {W}e merged the two subgenera as subgenus {B}actrophycus and transferred "{A}rthrophycus" species to {S}argassum section {H}alochloa. {T}he genus now includes only the two subgenera, {S}argassum and {B}actrophycus, and both were found at temperate and subtropical latitudes; only subgenus {S}argassum occurred at low latitudes near the equator, whereas subgenus {B}actrophycus had an antitropical, disjunct distribution.},
