Nomenclatural note
"The original collection of this species was from France by Sirodot and the second authors [sic] collected specimens of similar morphology from China. Recent studies of freshwater red algae employing DNA sequence data have revealed that specimens from different continent with similar morphologies are often different species. It is likely with more study that the specimens from China will be determined to represent a distinct species; DNA sequence data could confirm."
