Abstract
Abstract: The new species Hypnea corona Huisman & Petrocelli is described to accommodate specimens from Australia, New Zealand, Italy, and Japan that were previously included in the Hypnea cornuta complex but were shown by recent molecular studies to represent a species-level clade. Hypnea corona produces distinctive stellate, starch-filled propagules that are easily dislodged and serve as vegetative reproductive structures. However, similar structures are found in closely related species and thus H. corona is distinguished primarily by unique rbcL barcode sequences.
期刊介绍：
Pacific Science: A Quarterly Devoted to the Biological and Physical Sciences of the Pacific Region
The official journal of the Pacific Science Association. Appearing quarterly since 1947, Pacific Science is an international, multidisciplinary journal reporting research on the biological and physical sciences of the Pacific basin. It focuses on biogeography, ecology, evolution, geology and volcanology, oceanography, paleontology, and systematics. In addition to publishing original research, the journal features review articles providing a synthesis of current knowledge.
