Polysiphonia decipiens Montagne

Type Information
Type locality: Toud Island (Warrior Islet), Torres Strait, Australia; (Silva & al. 1996: 539) Notes: Type from the Auckland Is (d’ Urville), on fuci; holotype in Herb. Montagne, PC; isotypes in TCD (Womersley 2003: 208). Ins. Auckland: d'Urville (Index Nominum Algarum). Womersley (1979: 501) notes that there is doubt as to whether Auckland Islands is the type locality of P decipiens, since there appear to be no other collections of it from here. There is also doubt about the localities of other species recorded by Montagne (1845)... In most cases the identification seems correct but the locality appears to be in error; probably labelling of specimens was not carried out when collected and the Auckland Is. or New Zealand specimens in doubt may have come from Tasmania.

Origin of Species Name
