Previous entry: Herpochondria henriettae

* Herpochondria kampenii Weber-van Bosse

Herpochondria kampenii Weber-van Bosse, 1923: 337–339, fig. 128 (type locality: southern coast of Java, Indonesia).—De Toni, 1924: 525–526.

INDIAN OCEAN DISTRIBUTION: Indonesia.

Note: In describing Prionitis wentii, the host of this alga, Weber-van Bosse (1921: 244) mentioned the "parasite'' under the name Microcladia kampenii, without giving a description. Kylin (1956: 381) suggested that Herpochondria henriettae and H. kampenii perhaps are representative of an undescribed genus.
