| Note(s): |
Two species of the siphonaceous chlorophyte Ostreobium inhabiting the aragonite skeletons of Atlantic and Caribbean reef corals were studied. Ostreobium quekettii Bornet & Flahault has been previously reported from these locations, but the species is here amended to include filament forms previously described under the name O. reineckei Bornet. Ostreobium constrictum sp. n. is described here for the first time. The 2 sympatric species are distinguished on the basis of filament morphology and chloroplast form.
