Garbary, D. J., L. Golden, J. C. Oliveira, and R. F. Scagel. 1980. Canadian Field-Naturalist 94(3): 321-323. During July 1979 marine intertidal algae were collected on Langara Island, the northernmost of the Queen Charlotte Islands. Of the approximately 150 species collected, 28 were formerly unknown from northern British Columbia. Of these, Ulvella setchellii, Audouinella concrescens, A. daviesii. A. membranacea, A. variabile (Drew) Garbary comb, now, and Bonnemai- sonia geniculata are new to British Columbia. Many species known from both Alaska and southern British Columbia are reported for the first time from the intervening region, and 21 species were found to have new northern distribution limits. Six species recorded previously for the mainland (and adjacent islands) are new records for the Queen Charlotte Islands. Key Words: Acrochaetiaceae, Audouinella, Bonnemaisonia geniculata, marine algae, northern British Columbia, Queen Charlotte Islands. In comparison with the areas to the immediate north and south, the marine algae of northern British Columbia (region between northern tip of Vancouver Island and Alaska) remain poorly known. Hawkes et al. (1978) summarized early literature, and reported many new records based on their own and others' collections. Despite this work, at least 70 species known from the contiguous coastal areas are yet to be reported from northern British Columbia. In addi- tion, the reported flora for the region contains over 100 species fewer than that of Alaska (Lindstrom 1977), and less than half that recorded for the area of souther
