La présence d'Osmundea oederi (Gunnerus) G. Furnari comb. nov. est signalée pour la première fois en Méditerranée dans le Golfe de Tarante (Italie). O. oederi est comparé avec O. truncata, espèce morphologiquement voisine, et avec d'autres espèces d'Osmundea prèsentes en Méditerranée et pourvues de thalles comprimés et de synapses secondaires entre les cellules de l'épiderme. Laurencia bolivarii des Caraibes est conspécifique d'O. oederi

Abstract
The first documented occurrence of Osmundea oederi (Gunnerus) G. Furnari comb. nov. in the Mediterranean Sea is reported from the Gulf of Taranto (Italy). A comparison with the morphologically similar species O. truncata and other species of Osmundea with compressed thalli and secondary pit-connections between epidermal cells occurring in the Mediterranean Sea, is presented. The conspecificity of the Caribbean Laurencia bolivarii with O. oederi is also proposedI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
