Recently the taxonomy of the genera Plocamium has been revised. Plocamium used to be in the Gigartinales, but has been placed a new order, the Plocamiales. Saunders and Kraft (1993) describe the similarities and differences of Plocamiales with the Gigartinales and Ceramiales, and cite these and their PCR analysis of small-subunit rRNA gene sequences as evidence for making Plocamiales a separate division.
