Answer:

It is a large group of algae consisting of about 831 genera and over 5;250 species. They are commonly known as red algae due to the presence of a water soluble red pigment, r- phycoerythrin. The r-phycoerythrin is, however, present sufficiently and completely to mask the chlorophyll a, giving the characteristic red colouration.
