  abstract = {{C}aulerpa {J}.{V}. {L}amouroux is a genus of green macroalgae belonging to the family {C}aulerpaceae in the order {B}ryopsidales. {T}he genus comprises 104 currently accepted species, of which 51 have been recorded from {P}acific {I}slands. {A}mong these islands, {F}rench {P}olynesia is found in the middle of the {S}outh {P}acific {O}cean and includes five archipelagos (i.e., the {A}ustral, {G}ambier, {M}arquesas, {S}ociety, and {T}uamotu {I}slands) where seaweed inventories have reported a total of 16 {C}aulerpa species so far based on morphology. {H}ere, based on a sampling covering the five archipelagos of {F}rench {P}olynesia, we attempt to (i) verify the taxonomy of {C}aulerpa species present in these regions based on phylogeny, (ii) describe in more detail the specific diversity between the five archipelagos, and (iii) provide a morphological identification tool for these species. {W}e successfully obtained 134 new tuf{A} sequences for phylogenetic analyses, which corresponded to 13 species. {W}e propose to resurrect {C}. pickeringii {H}arvey & {B}ailey for representatives of {C}. webbiana var. pickeringii and classify it in the {C}aulerpa subgenus {A}raucarioideae. {W}e also transfer {C}. seuratii to {C}. pickeringii based on genetic results. {A} new morphological identification key is provided as well as an updated distribution of {C}aulerpa species across {F}rench {P}olynesia.},
