Agarum is a genus of kelp described by Barthélemy Dumortier in 1822.[1] It has a broad distribution through the northern portions of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.[3][4]
In 1840, Agarum was placed in the family Agaraceae (initially spelt Agaroideae), named after this genus.[5][4] Due to its paraphyletic status, some species have been separated into two genera, Neoagarum and Thalassiophyllum, classified in the same family.[2]
