This updated list is composed of a total of 661 records, which includes 71 brown algae, 450 red algae, 137 green algae, and three seagrasses, with an overall rate of endemism of 13.2%. Almost half (46.7%) of the Hawaiian records presented here are represented by at least one DNA sequence, while 16.3% are confirmed through a DNA sequence match to a topotype, and 6.7% are confirmed through a DNA sequence match to a type specimen. The data are presented in the context of the natural history of the Hawaiian Islands, which is heavily influenced by the volcanic hotspot origin of the archipelago in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, as well as the important cultural role of seaweeds and other marine plants in Hawai'i, and the current threats to marine ecosystems, which include the introduction and proliferation of a number of invasive marine macroalgae.
这份更新后的清单总共包含661条记录,其中包括71种褐藻、450种红藻、137种绿藻和3种海草,总体特有率为13.2%。此处呈现的夏威夷记录中,近一半(46.7%)至少有一个DNA序列作为代表,16.3%通过与主模式标本的DNA序列匹配得到确认,6.7%通过与模式标本的DNA序列匹配得到确认。这些数据是在夏威夷群岛自然历史的背景下呈现的,该自然历史受到太平洋中部群岛火山热点起源的严重影响,以及海藻和其他海洋植物在夏威夷的重要文化作用,还有当前海洋生态系统面临的威胁,其中包括多种入侵海洋大型藻类的引入和扩散。
