Abstract:
A new species, Marginariella parsonsii (Seirococcaceae, Phaeophyta), is described from the Bounty and Antipodes Islands, southern New Zealand. The genus Marginariella is endemic to New Zealand, with two widespread species, M boryana and M. urvilliana. This new species can be distinguished from the other members of the genus as it lacks vesicles, possesses very narrow, strap-like fronds, and is restricted to the Bounty and Antipodes Islands to the south-east of the New Zealand mainland.
