Type species
The type species (lectotype) of the genus Osmundea is Osmundea expansa Stackhouse.

Status of name
This name is of an entity that is currently accepted taxonomically.

Basionym
Fucus pinnatifidus Hudson

Type information
Type locality: Harwich, Essex, England (Silva & al. 1996: 534). Notes: This type locality was first recorded by Maggs & Hommersand (1993: 403, footnote).

Origin of species name

Homotypic Synonym(s)
Fucus pinnatifidus Hudson 1762
Sphaerococcus pinnatifidus (Hudson) Stackhouse 1797
Laurencia pinnatifida (Hudson) J.V.Lamouroux 1813
Gelidium pinnatifidum (Hudson) Lyngbye 1819
Chondria pinnatifida (Hudson) C.Agardh 1822

Heterotypic Synonym(s)

Distributional notes
Most Mediterranean records of this species (either as Osmundea pinnatifida and Laurencia pinnatifida) must be referred to Osmundea truncata (Nam, Maggs, McIvor & Stanhope, 2000). The only confirmed record of O. pinnatifida in the Mediterranean Sea is by Boisset et al. (1995) for the Alboran Sea (Furnari et al., 1999). "Early records from Ghana and São Tomé (as Laurencia pinnatifida) should be almost certainly discounted since the material upon which they are based most probably relates to the tropical Laurencia brongniartii." (John et al., 2004). A tropical record of this species (Papua New Guinea, Littler & Littler, 2003) is a misapplied name for Chondria ryukyuensis Yamada, which also occurs in nearby Solomon Islands (N'Yeurt & Payri, unpub. data).

General environment
This is a marine species.
