內(nèi)容摘要：
The main title alludes to the film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (in China as神奇動物在哪里), but that is fantasy. This is a real story about recent (unpublished) discoveries in Thai waters. Thailand is situated in the Indo-Pacific transition zone. The west coast borders the Andaman marine province (Western Indo-Pacific biogeographic realm) and the east coast borders the Sunda Shelf province (Central Indo-Pacific realm). More than 330 macroalgal species have been reported from Thai waters, but similarity to the seaweed floras of neighboring countries is lower than expected. The reason may be that taxonomists in different countries have used different names for the same species. With the advent of molecular techniques, it was revealed that seaweed diversity has been underestimated. Since 2018 Stefano Draisma has been visiting both coasts in search of seaweeds. Several recent discoveries will be presented through anecdotes. We still live in the Age of Discoveries when it comes to seaweed diversity and the horizon is not yet in sight.
