    Abstract


    The study aimed to describe the morphological characteristics of seaweed species of Galaxauraceae family (Nemaliales, Rhodophyta) distributed in Vietnam. Using morphological analysis methods and and microscopic examination of cell structure, the research results outlined the morphological characteristics of 10 seaweed species belonging to Galaxauraceae family including: Actinotrichia fragilis, Dichotomaria marginata, D. obtusata, D. papillata, Galaxaura divaricata, G. filamentosa, G. rugosa, Tricleocarpa cylindrica, T. fastigiata and T. fragilis distributed in Vietnam sea. The main results included the morphological characteristics, ecology, and images (natural life forms, fresh and dried specimens, branch details, and cells). The results not only provide information for the classification of seaweed species belonging to Galaxauraceae family, but also serve as a scientific basis for studies on ecology, exploitation of potential bioactive substances, and development of genetic resources of these seaweed species in
    the future.
