Comments: We classify Ulva lactuca (=U. fasciata) as introduced in the NWP and New Zealand / S. Australia and<br />

cryptogenic in the NEP and Hawaii based on Furota and Nakayama (2010), Heesch et al. (2009), CANOD (2009), and<br />

Carlton and Eldredge (2009), respectively. Because of taxonomic uncertainties, we list it as unclassified in other areas.<br />
