Taxonomic notes
Stiger et al. (2003: 8) note that the results of their studies support the view of Noro et al. (1995) that S. yendoi should be transferred from subgenus Phyllotrichia to the subgenus Sargassum. Their studies reveal that the ITS-2 sequences of S. yendoi and S. piluliferum are exactly the same and close to other Malacocarpicae species.

Malacocarpicae? Section Sargassum [= Section Malacocarpicae] (Matteo & Payri (2009). According to Cho et al. (2012: 479), S. piluliferum and S. yendoi formed a moderately supported subclade (78-87% bootstrap) with the members of S. sect. Sargassum. - (20 Feb 2013) - Wendy Guiry

General environment
This is a marine species.

Type information
Syntype localities: various, all in Japan Notes: According to Noro et al. (1995: 9), the type locality is Enoshima, Shimoda or Hayama, Japan and they note that a lectotype needs to be selected from Yamada's specimens in SAP.
