The sterol composition of five Black Sea red algae: Callithamnion granulatum, Ceramium rubrum, Ceramium elegans, Laurencia papillosa and Laurencia coronopus was obtained. Monohydroxy sterols and their oxidized derivatives have been identified. The results obtained were compared with some recent data for the composition of sterols in other Black Sea red algae, which occupy different evolutionary positions. On the basis of their composition, some conclusions about the chemotaxonomy and chemoevolution of the species investigated have been proposed.
