Abstract
In Commander Islands, the peculiar geographic location, hydrology and geomorphology contributed to de-velopment of a very peculiar algal floristic complex. First scientific information on species composition in this region appeared in XIX century. In this revision, we analyzed scientific publications containing algal floristic information from this region and composed list of species recorded during 1889–2020. We provided information about 52 green and 55 brown algal species recorded from the Commander Islands. The infor-mation concerning representatives of Laminariales is discussed in details, as they form basis of the underwa-ter vegetation. Our species list includes citations of references containing records from the Commander Is-lands and brief description of their biological and morphological characteristics. As we noted, in Russian Far East, Commander Islands belong to one of the few regions with highly examined algal flora.
