«0n Maui it is sometimes called limu pipilani. Limu eleele is the name for. most 

 all the Bnteromorphas of these islands. 



i This name is in very general use on Hawaii and Maui, but both names are com- 

 mon on Oahu. 



>•■ This alga is considered a delicacy on Maui and southern Hawaii, but is very scarce 

 and spoils very soon, so have not been able to secure enough to identify the species. 



<i This limu is usually called limu uaualoli, but the other names are used in cer- 

 tain localities. 



« This is very rare, only washed ashore occasionally, but resembles the other limu 

 lipoa, hence the name. 



/The several species of Laurencia are generally called limu maneoneo, if coarse 

 and short, and limu lipeepee if finer and longer. Limu lipee is an abbreviation, 

 while limu lipuupuu has only local use in places on Hawaii and Maui. 



ffThis is not an alga, but a flowering plant sold in the market as a limu, probably 

 b(jicause it grows in fresh water and resembles the common limu kala from the sea.
