Abstract

Sixteen marine macroalgae from New Zealand were described by Tore Levring in two papers in 1949 and 1955. From the time of publication there has been confusion about the location and the identity of type material of the taxa Levring described. Although a number of attempts have been made to locate these types, the majority have remained effectively lost until two recent studies that revealed the location and identity of these specimens. This paper documents the status of type material of taxa of New Zealand macroalgae described by Levring and their current location in order that this material becomes publicly accessible. Lectotypes are selected for six species.
