    The brown algal genus Padina Adanson is widely distributed from warm temperate to tropical seas worldwide, occurring in the intertidal to subtidal zones up to 30–40 m depth. It is the second most species-rich genus in the order Dictyotales after Dictyota. So far, 53 species have been recognized worldwide in the genus Padina according to the global algal database (AlgaeBase, as of April 2021). Currently, 24 species have been recorded in Japan including P. boryana and P. stipitata, for which genetic information is not yet available from Japan. In this paper, the results of molecular phylogenetic analyses using the chloroplast rbcL and mitochondrial cox3 gene sequences for 22 species found in Japan are presented. Distinctive morphological features of each species are described and an identification key of Padina species found in Japan is proposed. Several morphological characters, such as number of cell layers composing the thallus, presence or absence and degree of calcification, presence or absence of small groups of rhizoid-like hairs on the inferior thallus surface, presence or absence of a Vaughaniella stage, structure, position and arrangement of hairlines and reproductive sori, reproductive system of gametophytes (monoecious or dioecious), and presence or absence of indusium covering reproductive sori, are considered as important morphological characters for species delineation.

    The brown algal genus Dictyota (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) is widespread, particularly in warm temperate and tropical waters, and plays a vital role in coastal ecosystems. This study reassessed the taxonomy of Dictyota, focusing on specimens from Myanmar and Japan, using a combination of morphological and molecular analyses. Molecular phylogenetic analyses using concatenated DNA sequences of rbcL, psaA, psbA, cox1 and cox3 genes revealed that Dictyota specimens from Myanmar, Japan, and other regions, belong to nine different clades, each representing a different species. Based on morphological and molecular data, seven out of these nine clades are identified as known species, while the remaining two clades are described as new species D. recumbens sp. nov. (=D. sp. A) and D. dimorphosa sp. nov. (=D. sp. B). Dictyota recumbens is characterized by the recumbent thallus, with transverse yellowish-green iridescent lines, and the formation of solitary spores irregularly distributed over the thallus. Dictyota dimorphosa is characterized by two morphological forms: decumbent and erect thalli, with bluish iridescence mainly in the decumbent thallus, and the formation of spores in oval ring shapes distributed over both thallus surfaces. Dictyota recumbens was typically found in tropical regions, while D. dimorphosa appears to be a cool-warm temperate species, distributed from northeastern Hokkaido to southern Kyushu with an extension along South Korea. Our molecular phylogenetic analyses have revealed the existence of several species whose names appeared in multiple clades, suggesting the potential for future increases in species diversity and the presence of cryptic species within certain groups.

    The brown algal genus Padina Adanson is widely distributed from warm temperate to tropical seas worldwide, occurring in the intertidal to subtidal zones up to 30 - 40 m depth. It is the second most species-rich genus in the order Dictyotales after Dictyota. So far, 53 species have been recognized worldwide in the genus Padina according to the global algal database (AlgaeBase, as of April 2021). Currently, 24 species have been recorded in Japan including P. boryana and P. stipitata, for which genetic information is not yet available from Japan. In this paper, the results of molecular phylogenetic analyses using the chloroplast rbcL and mitochondrial cox3 gene sequences for 22 species found in Japan are presented. Distinctive morphological features of each species are described and an identification key for Padina species found in Japan is proposed. Several morphological characters, such as number of cell layers composing the thallus, presence or absence and degree of calcification, presence or absence of small groups of rhizoid-like hairs on the inferior thallus surface, presence or absence of a Vaughaniella-stage, structure, position and arrangement of hairlines and reproductive sori, reproductive system of gametophytes (monoecious or dioecious), and presence or absence of indusium covering reproductive sori, are considered as important morphological characters for species delineation.

Outline of Social Contribution and International Cooperation activities

  • In 2017 and 2018, I participated in the marine biological field training course for high school students of Amakusa High School and provided guidance on the field training and surveys in order to train the students to understand taxonomy, ecology, and the relationship between marine organisms and their environment.

    I participated in the local activities of the environmental conservation, such as garbage collecting and cleaning on the coast of Tomioka, Amakusa-Shimoshima, which have been held every year since 2017.

    From 2018 to 2020, I participated in an international collaboration project with Phycologists from Hong Kong on the study of taxonomy and biodiversity of marine macroalgae of Hong Kong.

    In Oct. 2018, I presented a lecture on seaweeds, treasures of Amakusa-Shimoshima, to the local people of Amakusa. In the lecture, I explained the current situation of seaweeds along the coast of Amakusa, their usefulness and importance for humans, and marine environment to the local people. During my talk, I was able to contribute to the sharing of professional knowledge about how marine algae are important for our life and also for marine ecosystems. In addition, because of the talk, I was able to communicate with the local people and got their help for the conservation of marine resources and environment by better understanding of the importance of marine algae.
