[edit] Stramenopila
It appears that the proper name for this kingdom is Stramenopila. Kingdom Stramenopila (Patterson in Green et al., 1989), (Beakes, 1998), (Campbell & Reece, 2002) --Bejnar 18:51, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
- I think there are many different equivalent words for this division: Ochrophyta, Chromophyta, Stramenopiles, Heterokonts. I think they are all identical (now).
[edit] Contradiction
Article says: "They include all algae whose chloroplasts contain chlorophylls a and c..." but green algae has chlorophyll a and b too. (and is obviously not a Chromista)
- You've just contradicted yourself (whoever you are). Chromista includes those with a and c. Green algae, which have a and b, are included in Archaeplastida and are closely related to embryophytes (land plants). Please double check your information before putting up something like this.
