Polycoelia van-hoevellii Weber-van Bosse

Polycoelia van-hoevellii Weber-van Bosse, 1921: 310, pl. VII: fig. 11 (syntype localities: various in Indonesia fide Weber-van Bosse, 1928: 399).—De Toni, 1924: 219–220.

INDIAN OCEAN DISTRIBUTION: Amirante Islands.

Note: Weber-van Bosse (1913b: 114) first mentioned this species, without a description, in her account of the algae of the Amirante Islands. According to Womersley & R. Norris (1971: 22, footnote), the species, while possibly a member of the Kallymeniaceae, is probably not referable to Polycoelia.
