Comments: Polysiphonia denudata is a north Atlantic/Caribbean species. It has been found in the San Francisco Estuary<br />

but has not been reported from other NEP estuaries. We classify it as introduced in the Indian Ocean but note that it<br />

was not listed among the nonindigenous species for the Indian Seas (Rao, 2005).<br />
