Remark on the species. Martens'* reports Sargassum suhre- 

 pandum Foksk., collected at Nagasaki by Schottmüller. He 

 mentions Kutzing's Tab. Phyc, 1. c, fig. 1, as an illustration of 

 Forskal's species and not of ^^argassum subrepandum Ag. J. 

 AcARDir^ refers Kutzing's illustration to the present species. As 

 I have never seen any specimen regarded as authentic by any 

 of these writers, I can only follow J. Agardh's opinion. 



Martens^- assigns also Carpacanthns latifolius Kütz. to 

 Nagasaki. But J. Agaruh"*^ discredits the presence of any Carp- 

 acanthus structure in the receptacles of Sargassum latifolium J. 

 Ag. If Martens had mentioned Carpacanthus latifolius Kütz. 

 after identifying his specimen with the illustration in Tab. Phyc. 

 Bd. XI, Taf. 47, the specimen might possibly have been a 

 basal portion, or a young sterile frond, of Sargassum serraiifoliu/n 

 or of one of its allies. 



Localities. Nagasaki (Schottmüller, Martens) ; Japan 

 (O'Kuntze).
