  abstract = {{G}racilaria vieillardii has been widely reported from the western {P}acific {O}cean; however, these records remained provisional due to the absence of morphological details for material from the type locality, {N}ew {C}aledonia. {T}o clarify the taxonomic position of {G}. 'vieillardii' from {T}aiwan and the interspecific relationships of the foliose {G}racilaria species from the western {P}acific {O}cean, we used rbc{L} sequences and inferred their molecular phylogeny along with that of other foliose species from around the world. {F}oliose species with textorii-type spermatangial conceptacles, collected from the western {P}acific {O}cean, were analyzed here along with foliose species from {S}outh {A}frica. {T}hese formed a natural assemblage. {I}n contrast, those foliose species with textorii-type spermatangial conceptacles, which were collected from the tropical {A}tlantic {O}cean, did not form a monophyletic clade. {W}e described {G}racilaria taiwanensis sp. nov., based upon a foliose species with marginal teeth, that was previously recorded from {T}aiwan as {G}. vieillardii {O}ur molecular analyses indicated that {G}. taiwanensis was sister to the clade of {G}. vieillardii from the type locality, {N}ew {C}aledonia; however, they differed by 28 base pairs among 1390 aligned nucleotides of the rbc{L} gene. {G}racilaria taiwanensis was characterized by its palmate, prostrate thallus and thicker cystocarp floor (180-300 mu m thick). {I}n contrast, {G}. vieillardii possessed bushy, slightly prostrate thalli, and the cystocarp floor was not as thick (100-150 mu m thick).},
