Pyropia suborbiculata (Kjellman) J.E.Sutherland, H.G.Choi, M.S.Hwang & W.A. Nelson in Sutherland et al.

Type: UPS, Goto, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan, 25.v.1881, coll. J. V. Petersen

Philippine record of distribution: Cavite (Corregidor Is.), Ilocos Norte (Burgos), Cagayan (Palaui Is., Sta. Ana).

Note: Sequenced materials of Py. tanegashimensis ( Dumilag et al. 2016) suggest that records of specimens previously known as Py. suborbiculata from Palaui Is., Cagayan ( Cordero 1974) may have been misidentified. Cordero (1977) described conspecific specimens from Ilocos Norte to display “no mark of taxonomic differences” from those found in the former site. Molecular analysis on foliose Bangiales specimens collected from the similar site reported in Monotilla & Notoya (2004), i.e., Burgos, Ilocos Norte, have indicated the presence only of Py. acanthophora ( Dumilag & Aguinaldo 2017) . Although Py. suborbiculata is widely distributed throughout Asian waters ( Yoshida 1998; Monotilla & Notoya 2004; Tsutsui et al. 2005) and is known to have been introduced to the Atlantic United States, New Zealand, Canary Islands, Brazil and Iberian Peninsula ( Broom et al. 2002 and references therein; Milstein & Oliviera 2005; Vergès et al. 2013), its presence in the Philippines is yet to be confirmed until actual materials are sequenced.
