Comments: Hypnea musciformis has been widely distributed for aquaculture. Olenin and Didžiulis (2009) list it as<br />

cryptogenic in Europe though Zenetos et al. (2009) do not list it as introduced in the Mediterranean. We consider it<br />

unclassified in the western Atlantic and Mediterranean and introduced in the Pacific.<br />
