Abstract The family Gracilariaceae is the most diverse group in order Gracilariales, comprising 243 taxonomically accepted agarophyte species. Gracilaria stands out as representative genus due to its species richness with significant overlap of characters. Given economic potential, a robust set discriminative characters essential, quality and market value phycocolloids they produce vary significantly. flabelliformis , noted for extensive distribution along Atlantic high intraspecific phenotypic plasticity, prevalent across all Mexican coastal states. This study assessed genetic diversity G. populations using molecular sequences from RuBisCo spacer region investigate potential variation. From 124 specimens examined, analysis revealed structure, statistically supported, reflected 10 haplotypes divided into two subgroups (R1, like ancestor, R6 R7; R2, R3 R4) interconnected by R8, R9, R10. Additionally, bottleneck effect between Veracruz Yucatan Peninsula suggested decrease haplotypic isolation. While haplotype R1 was present populations, suggesting historical connectivity regions, further studies are necessary fully understand implications these findings on conservation management .
