Rugulopteryx (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae), a genus recently introduced to the Mediterranean
The introduction of a common Western Pacific representative of the Dictyotales, Rugulopteryx okamurae (Dawson) I.K. Hwang et al., in european waters was demonstrated for the first time. The species was collected in the coastal lagoon of Thau (France, Mediterranean) in 2002. The specimens from Europe...
