Records of marine macroalgae reported from the Philippines were checked against AlgaeBase,
the international database for algal nomenclatures, and Index Nominum Algarum (INA)
Bibliographia Phycologica Universalis of the University of California at Berkeley Silva Center
for Phycological Documentation to verify their present nomenclature, status of taxonomy and
bibliographic reference. To date, 306 names of taxa (including species, varieties and forms) of
greens (Chlorophyta), 234 names of taxa of browns (Ochrophyta, Phaeophyceae) and 751 names
of taxa of reds (Rhodophyta), or a total of 1291 published names of taxa have been reported
from the Philippines. Of these, 231 taxa representing 197 species in 20 families for green algae,
171 taxa representing 153 species in 10 families for brown algae, and 564 taxa representing
543 species in 52 families for red algae are considered valid records listed with their currently
accepted names. All in all, 966 currently accepted taxa, representing 893 species in 82 families
of marine macroalgae have been reported from the Philippines. Among the greens, 15 taxa
have their type localities in the Philippines. This number is 40 for the browns and 33 for the
reds. Proportionally, this is 6.5% of the total for the greens, 23.4% for the browns and 5.9%
for the reds.
Key Words: Philippine marine macroalgae, algal taxonomic status, algal type species from the

Philippines is known for its rich marine flora. Over the
years, several efforts have been attempted to compile and
annotate the records of marine algae collected from the
Philippines, including those by Silva et al. (1987), the two
volume works by Trono (1997, 2004), and more recently,
the checklist with a cut off date at 1999 by Ganzon-Fortes
(2012). The last mentioned literature compiled a list
of 949 algal species, including 61 Cyanobacteria, 212
Chlorophytes, 154 Ochrophytes (Phaeophyceaens) and
522 Rhodophytes. Several recent works since 1999 have
contributed to the long list of Philippine marine algal
records. Notable of these included the works of Geraldino
With the extensive application of molecular techniques
in studies on algal systematics in recent years, major
revisions have been made in many groups of tropical
marine algae. There is therefore a need to update the
nomenclatures of Philippine marine algal records. This
nomenclature validation is important to algal biodiversity,
conservation and biogeographical studies in order to
provide a more accurate picture of floristic connection
and the relatedness of Philippine flora with those of
other neighbouring regions. The main objective of this
current work is therefore to compile all known records
of Philippine macroalgae from the literature till April of

2), and 564 taxa representing 543 species in 52 families for red algae (Table 3). Among the reds, four taxa
are generic records only (Euptilota sp., Callithamnion
sp., Dudresnaya sp. and Rhabdonia sp.). These genera
are unique records, although with no specific names reported for the Philippine specimens, and are therefore
counted as part of the 543 species recorded. Family
Rhabdoniaceae, where Rhabdonia sp. belongs, also represents a unique family with only one known species recorded from the Philippines. The family of Callophycus
serratus cannot be ascertained, hence, is classified under “Rhodophyta incertae sedis” by AlgaeBase. All in
all, 966 currently accepted valid taxa, representing 893
species in 82 families of marine macroalgae have been
reported from the Philippines.
Materials and Methods
This compilation work relied initially on the main catalogue of marine algae reported from the Philippines by
Silva et al. (1987). Further updates were based on works
by Trono (1997, 2004) and Ganzon-Fortes (2012). In addition, all relevant, more recent (post 1999) literatures
were consulted. In case of doubts, original literatures
were also consulted for confirmation of the records.
These literatures are all included in the Reference list.
Synonyms or invalid names recorded for different species under the three major groups of algae are also listed
respectively in Tables 1 to 3, across their currently accepted names. Some invalid names are clearly due to
spelling error (e.g. Sargassum siliquosum vs. S. siloquosum), some are simply due to incorrect gender agreement
with the generic name (e.g. Kappaphycus striatus vs.
K. striatum). These variations of nomenclature in print
are listed here for record purposes. Among the greens,
Enteromorpha aragoensis Bliding is considered illegitimate due to lack of a type citation (Table 1). Under each
phylum, there are published records of taxa which have
no matching records in AlgaeBase. These are separately
listed. These taxa have also been checked against INA
Database. Those which are not also found in INA Database probably represent invalid names. Furthermore,
some taxa are classified under “Preliminary Entry” in AlgaeBase. These are taxa where detailed studies on their
taxonomic status are not available. These are all listed
in the respective Tables for record purposes and are not
included in the total count of species.
The compiled list of algae was then double checked for
duplication. The revised list was further checked for
synonymy and invalidity of taxa based on AlgaeBase
(Guiry and Guiry 2013) and INA Database (Silva 1996to date). The most recent information on family classification, name of authorities, and type localities were
also checked and accepted to come up with the final list.
Where type localities of species are reported to be in the
Philippines, the protologues were consulted, or reference
was made to Silva (1996-to date), for verification.
Results and Discussion
This compilation includes only taxa of marine macroalgae belonging to the three major phyla, the Chlorophyta
(Green), Ochrophyta (Pheophyceae, Brown) and Rhodophyta (Red) listed in Tables 1 to 3 respectively. For
ease of reference, the scientific names of listed taxa are
arranged alphabetically first by the family classification,
followed by the generic and species epithets. The abbreviation of the authority names of all binomials follows
that used in AlgaeBase. For consideration of nomenclatural priority, the original year of publication was added
at the end of each currently accepted taxon listed.
Among the greens, 15 taxa have their type localities in
the Philippines. This number is 40 for the browns and 33
for the reds. Proportionally, this is 6.5% of the total for
the greens, 23.4% for the browns and 5.9% for the reds.
The high proportion of type species (taxa) in browns is
mainly due to the relatively high number of Sargassum
taxa reported as being new to science by Grunow (1915,
1916) (16 taxa) and Trono (1994) (12 species). Two taxa
(Sargassum cinctum var. jagorii Grunow and S. crassifolium var. subduplicatum (‘subduplicata’) Grunow) described by Grunow (1915) based on materials from the
Philippines are not recorded in AlgaeBase (see Table 2).
To include these would increase the proportion of brown
algae with type or syntype locality in the Philippines to
24.3%. On the other hand, the green alga Cladophora
In total, 306 published names of taxa (including species,
varieties and forms) of greens, 234 names of browns and
751 names of reds, or a total of 1291 names of algal taxa
have been reported from the Philippines. Of these, there
are 231 validly published taxa representing 197 species
in 20 families for green algae (Table 1), 171 taxa representing 153 species in 10 families for brown algae (Table

luzoniensis Martens was also described based on Philippine materials (Table 1). But this taxon is listed as a
preliminary entry in AlgaeBase so its current taxonomic
status remains unchecked.
National University of Singapore for his comments and
editorial suggestions on the manuscript. Special thanks are
also given to Dr. Lawrence Liao of Hiroshima University,
Japan, for his very valuable comments, corrections and
additions on our earlier list of algal records from the
Philippines. This work benefited from funding from the
Research Grant Council of Hong Kong GRF Project No.
CUHK460012.
Although the number of species (893) recorded from the
Philippines compiled in the present work remains comparable with that compiled by Ganzon-Fortez (2012) for
records up to 1999 (888 species, excluding Cyanobacteria), the details of the species list are quite different. This
is so mainly because of the large number of taxa that
has been synonymized in recent years. On a purely numerical sense, there is a net increase of 21 species among
the reds in the new list, compared to a drop of 1 and 15
species respectively among the browns and the greens.
Payo et al. (2013) recently suggested naming 21 new
cryptic species of the red alga Portieria from the Philippines based on three molecular markers they used. These
“new” species have not been considered in the present
compilation.

As in other attempts to compile a listing of algal records,
no actual examination of the algal materials was done.
This listing should therefore be viewed simply as a listed
record with the validity of the published species names
verified. It does not, however, verify the correct identification of each original record. Readers which find mistakes in the list are most welcomed to inform the authors
so an improved list can be made in the future. Further
studies involving actual examination of the original algal
materials are expected to verify the species identity.
