Metamastophora flabellata
 
Description Stray occurrence of Metamastophora flabellata is recorded, for the first time from the Andaman Sea, India. Earlier this alga was reported to be confined only to the coasts of southern Australia and Africa. The specimen is smaller than that described from Australia and Africa. The presence of this alga at Great Nicobar Island indicated its further northward distribution.
