Taxonomic note
John et al. (2004) cite Halymenia agardhii De Toni as a synonym of this species. "It should be noted that, according to Rodríguez-Prieto et al. (2018: 522 and fig. 1) the molecular sequence of this species (with the code KX586171), falls within a clade distant from that in which the type species of the genus does. Therefore, it is highly probable that H. elongata could belong to a distinct genus. In absence of further studies, the name of the genus was put in inverted commas" (Cormaci, Furnari & Alongi (2021: 83). - (11 May 2006) - G.M. Guiry
