Table 1.

Cryptophyte phycobiliprotein classes and their associated absorption range. (Cr, cryptophytes; PE, phycoerythrin; PC, phycocyanin. Wavelengths are given in nanometres (nm). Adapted from table 1 in Glazer & Wedemayer [16]. Cryptophyte phycobiliproteins are named according to the wavelength of maximal absorption, e.g. 545 nm for Cr-PE 545.)

phycobiliprotein class	absorption range (nm)
Cr-PE 545	538–551
Cr-PE 555	553–556
Cr-PE 566	563–567
Cr-PC 569	568–569
Cr-PC 577	576–578
Cr-PC 615	612–615
Cr-PC 630	625–630
Cr-PC 645	641–650
