Padina tetrastromatica Hauck, a Misapplied Name for P. crispata Thivy in Pacific Mexico
Padina tetrastromatica Hauck was first reported from Pacific México by Setchell and Gardner nearly seventy years ago, and this record has been repeated by subsequent authors. This taxon was not found, however, either in recent collections or in investigations of herbarium material. Padina tetrastromatica differs from other species of Padina by having fewer rows of cells in the central portion of the thallus. The Setchell and Gardner record of P. tetrastromatica is representative of P. crispata Thivy. Padina tetrastromatica does not occur in Pacific México.
