Comments: Desmarestia ligulata was introduced into Dalian, China from Japan (Chen et al., 2006a). Though its<br />

classification in Japan is not clear, we tentatively classify it as native on the Pacific Coast of Japan. D. ligulata is a cold<br />

temperate species with a bipolar distribution that also occurs in deeper waters in warm areas, such as Hawaii.<br />
