38 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MARINE SCIENCES<br />

(1904:16) lectotypified L. siamense with f. minutum, which<br />

he <strong>the</strong>n called f. typicum. In <strong>the</strong> same work, Foslie (1904:10)<br />

described L. siamense f. pseudoramosum. Tongquil I. is in <strong>the</strong><br />

list <strong>of</strong> localities for <strong>the</strong> species, but to which forma it pertains<br />

is not indicated.<br />

Mesophyllum simulans (Foslie) Lemoine<br />

Lithothamnion siamense Foslie f. simulans Foslie, 190lb: 19 [type locality:<br />

Ko Sarlak, Ko Chang Archipelago, Thailand].<br />

Philippine record].—Velasquez, Trono, and Doty, 1975:152.<br />

1889:51, 59.<br />

PHILIPPINE DISTRIBUTION.—Locality not specified.<br />

NOTE.—Millepora polymorpha Linnaeus (1767:1285) is a<br />

superfluous and hence illegitimate substitute name for M.<br />

calcarea Pallas (1766:265). None<strong>the</strong>less, <strong>the</strong> two names have<br />

traditionally been applied to separate species. According to<br />

Woelkerling and Irvine (1986), <strong>the</strong> species traditionally but<br />

incorrectly known as Lithothamnion polymorphum (Linnaeus)<br />

J.E. Areschoug (1852:524) or Phymatolithon polymorphum<br />

TAXON OF UNCERTAIN VALUE<br />

The following infraspecific taxon is related to Sporolithon<br />

erythraeum but has not been formally transferred to it.<br />

Archaeolithothamnion erythraeum (Rothpletz) Foslie<br />

f. molle (Heydrich) Foslie<br />

PHILIPPINE DISTRIBUTION.—SULU: Sulu (North Ubian I.,<br />

Tongquil I.), Tawitawi (Pearl Bank, Sangasiapu I.).<br />

NOTE.—When establishing Sporolithon ptychoides, Heydrich<br />

divided <strong>the</strong> species into two formae, durum and molle.
