We dedicate this work to Dr. Gregorio T. Velasquez, Professor Emeritus, University of the Philippines, devoted champion of phycology and phycologists in the Philippines. iv
Catalog of the Benthic Marine Algae of the Philippines During May-June 1978 and April-May 1979, Ernani G. Mefiez participated in the Smithsonian Institution Philippines Expedition (SIPHILEXP), which was officially based at the Silliman University Marine Laboratory in Dumaguete City, Negros Island. The primary objective was to collect marine organisms from the Central Visayas for studies on taxonomy and distribution. A large collection of benthic marine algae was obtained and subsequently studied. In preparation for SIPHILEXP, Mefiez initiated a compilation of the species of benthic marine algae reported from the Philippines and a list of references pertaining to them. Because of the existence of unique phycological resources in the Herbarium of the University of California at Berkeley, specifically the Index Nominum Algarum and the Bibliographia Phycologica Universalis (both in the form of card files compiled and maintained by Paul C. Silva), he took his preliminary draft there for checking. The utility of collaboration was perceived and an arrangement was made whereby Mefiez would be responsible for the citations of species while Silva would be responsible for providing the taxonomic framework and correct nomenclature. In the five years that have passed since the cooperative effort was begun, the number of publications dealing with Philippine seaweeds has increased markedly, and both Mefiez and Silva have been involved in keeping pace with the output. In the summer of 1984, Richard L. Moe was asked to join the project, in view of his competency in word-processing and broad phycological experience. The purpose of this catalog is to integrate published information on the taxonomy and distribution of Philippine benthic marine algae and thus provide a foundation for Paul C. Silva, Herbarium, Department of Botany, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720. Ernani G. Menez, Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560. Richard L. Moe, Herbarium, Department of Botany, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720. Paul C. Silva, Ernani G. Menez, and Richard L. Moe Introduction future exploration and research. Rather than make an uncritical compilation of records (such as Velasquez, Trono, and Doty, 1975), we decided to incorporate as much information as was pertinent to understanding the taxonomic structure and nomenclature adopted in this catalog. The continued relevance of this information obviously depends upon the reliability of the determinations that underlie the published records. Considering that very little critical work has been done on Philippine marine algae, it is reasonable to assume that a certain portion of the incorporated information will eventually prove irrelevant. Nonetheless, we believe that this catalog will facilitate and perhaps stimulate future work by pointing out geographic and taxonomic areas most in need of attention. Unlike publications that are intended to endure like monoliths, this catalog is intended to become obsolete, with the rate of obsolescence an index of the progress in Philippine phycology. Because tens of thousands of data are incorporated in this catalog, the possibility of making errors is great, but we hope that we have initiated far fewer than we have encountered in the literature and corrected. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.—For assistance in obtaining copies of pertinent literature, we are especially grateful to Ms. Hilconida Calumpong, Silliman University Marine Laboratory, Dumaguete City, Dr. Paciente A. Cordero, Junior, Division of Botany, Philippine National Museum, Manila, Mrs. Edna T. Fortes-Ganzon, Marine Science Institute, University of the Philippines, Quezon City, Mr. Lawrence M. Liao, Department of Biology, University of San Carlos, Cebu City, and Dr. Milagrosa R. Martinez, University of the Philippines at Los Bafios. We are indebted to Dr. Thomas O. Duncan, Director of the Herbarium of the University of California at Berkeley, for his efforts in obtaining a computer system for the Herbarium and for encouraging us to use it in preparing the electronic manuscript of this catalog.
