Halimedaceans (= Udoteaceans) are an ancient group of green algae (Chlorophyta) that first appeared in the Upper Cambrian and occur through the Phanerozoic up to the Recent. The number of described Triassic genera and species of halimedaceans have more than doubled during the last decades. The first representative of Triassic halimedaceans appeared in the Anisian. The number of halimedacean taxa increased during the Triassic, reaching maximum abundance in Late Triassic (Norian-Rhaetian). In addition to the previously known taxa, new taxa are described from the Ladinian-Carnian reefs limestones of the Dolomites, Italy and from Norian reef limestones of Sicily and the Southern Appennines. These are: Calabricodium irregularum nov. gen., nov. sp., Collarecodium cornuformis nov. sp., Brandneria calabrica nov. sp., Madonicodium noricum nov. gen., nov. sp., and Alpinocodium fluegeli nov. gen., nov. sp. The majority of halimedaceans occur only in reefs, but a few of them are also commonly found in deposits of lagoonal environments.
