Abstract: | Net photosynthetic oxygen evolution in Amphiroa anceps (Lamarck) Decaisne is inhibited at high oxygen concentrations. Photosynthesis is highest between pH 6.5 and 7.5. At pH 9 to 10 there is still a significant photosynthetic rate, suggesting that this alga can use HCO

as a substrate for photosynthesis. At pH 7.0 to 8.5, the photosynthetic rate saturates at a total inorganic carbon concentration ( Ci) greater than 3 mM. At pH 8.5 and 8.8, calcification rate continues to increase with increasing concentration of Ci. Between pH 7 and 9, the calcification rate in the light in A. foliacea Lamouroux is proportional to the photosynthetic rate, whereas at higher pH where the photosynthetic rate is very low, the calcification rate is stimulated by the higher concentration of CO
