Molecular data obtained by a procedure for extracting PCR‐amplifiable nuclear and chloroplast DNA from old and formalin‐fixed red algal herbarium specimens were used to elucidate problems in the systematics of Pacific Gigartinaceae. Correspondence between nucleotide sequences of the internal transcr...
