Comments: Eucheuma denticulatum appears to be native to India and the western Pacific, however, its widespread<br />

introduction for aquaculture confuses the distribution. We classify ecoregions as invaded if there is a record of a<br />

purposeful introduction or it lies outside E. denticulatum apparent natural range.<br />
