Chondracanthus teedei  and  C. chamissoi  are regarded as cosmopolitan and endemic species, respectively. To verify the geographic distribution of these two species, we analyzed specimens of  C. teedei  from the Western Pacific and the Atlantic coast of Spain, as well as of  C. chamissoi  from Chile using plastid  rbc L and mitochondrial COI genes. The phylogenetic tree of  rbc L revealed that “ C. teedei ” from Asia and  Chondracanthus  sp. from France are conspecific with  C. chamissoi  from Chile, but distinct from the clade of  C. teedei  from the Atlantic. These results indicate that  C. chamissoi  is not exclusively distributed in the southeastern Pacific, but is also found in Korea/Japan and France, whereas  C. teedei  is found in the Atlantic and not in the western Pacific region. This study demonstrated that the range of  C. chamissoi  is wider than previously thought, raising interesting questions regarding the transportation vector and the absence of  C. teedei  from Korea and Japan. In addition, we confirmed that molecular analyses can be used to examine the geographic distribution of marine macroalgae.
