Abstract

Descriptions of ten new and little-known species of macroalgae found during a revision of herbarium and live material collected by the authors from Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan, in 2001, 2018, and 2019 are provided in the present report. Of these, seven species are new to the Russian coast of the Sea of Japan, five species are new to the flora of the Far Eastern seas, and three species were previously recorded from Peter the Great Bay without description.
