The carotenoid pigments of 50 species of 9 siphonean orders were investigated. The algae of all orders contain the principal carotenoids known from other green algae: α- and β-carotene, lutein, lutein epoxide, violaxanthin, and neoxanthin. Additionally, in some Siphonodadales siphonaxanthin is present, in the Derbesiales, Codiales, and Caulerpales both siphonaxanthin and its ester siphonein are present, whereas in the Dichotomosiphonales only the ester siphonein can be found. The chemotaxonomical value of siphonaxanthin and siphonein is discussed.
对9个管藻目50个物种的类胡萝卜素色素进行了研究。所有目的藻类都含有从其他绿藻中已知的主要类胡萝卜素：α-和β-胡萝卜素、叶黄素、环氧叶黄素、紫黄质和新黄质。此外，在一些管藻目中存在虹吸黄质，在德氏藻目、粉枝藻目和蕨藻目中同时存在虹吸黄质及其酯类西佛因，而在双岐藻目中仅能发现西佛因酯。讨论了虹吸黄质和西佛因的化学分类学价值。
