  abstract = {{I}n {T}aiwan the algal reefs in {T}aoyuan {C}ounty are the largest, composed of recent and fossil non-geniculate coralline algae. {H}owever, their diversity and phylogenetics in the region have never been documented. {I}n this study, we analyzed the phylogenetic relationships of the non-geniculate coralline algae species collected from {T}aoyuan algal reefs and related non-geniculate species from other places in {T}aiwan and around the world based on psb{A} and {SSU} sequences. {T}he molecular analyses revealed that at least 12 non-geniculate coralline species belonging in six evolutionary clades ({H}arveylithon, {L}ithophyllum, {P}neophyllum, {C}rustaphytum gen. nov., and {P}hymatolithon, {S}porolithon) occur in {T}aoyuan algal reefs. {E}leven of these species do not match any described species and one ({L}ithophyllum margaritae) is a new record for the marine flora of {T}aiwan. {W}e also describe a new genus ({C}rustaphytum gen. nov.) and three new non-geniculate coralline species ({C}rustaphytum pacificum sp. nov., {H}arveylithon rosea sp. nov., and {P}hymatolithon margoundulatus sp. nov.) for the most dominant and commonly seen species revealed by the molecular analyses. {A}mong the latter three species, {P}. margoundulatus is only found in {T}aoyuan {C}ounty and is the most dominant species there, comprising over 30% of the total cover, whereas {C}. pacificum has the widest distribution in the western {P}acific {O}cean ({T}aiwan and {N}ew {C}aledonia). {H}arveylithon rosea is a common species occurring in both algal reefs and rocky shores in the northern {T}aiwan. {T}he other undescribed {CCA} species will be published when more specimens with reproductive structures are collected.},
