Undaria pinnatifida (Harvey) Suringar 1873 is native to Northern Asia and has become well established in the Mediterranean Sea, Atlantic Europe, New Zealand, Tasmania, Australia, Pacific coasts of United States Mexico Patagonia Argentina. On 13th September 2011 sporophytes U. were found growing from subtidal-intertidal limit 4.5 m depth Mar del Plata.

Abstract Endemic Antarctic macroalgae are especially adapted to live in extreme conditions. Their potential biogeographic distribution niche is primarily controlled by the photoperiodic regime and seawater temperatures, since these parameters regulate growth, reproduction, survival during entire life cycle. Here we analyzed upper temperature (UST) of juvenile sporophytes range for sporophyte formation from gametophytes Desmarestia menziesii , one dominant endemic brown algal species. This...
