Evaluation Method of Ride Control System for Fast Craft from the viewpoint of Passenger Confort.

Abstract

The currently known 18 Thai species of Gracilaria sensu lato (Gracilaria, Gracilariopsis and Hydropuntia) were re-examined on the basis of the specimens housed in the herbaria of Kasetsart University (Thailand), Bishop Museum (USA), and Kagoshima University (Japan) and our recently collected material. Although Gracilaria minuta and Gracilaria rhodymenioides had been previously known only from the Gulf of Thailand (Western Pacific), they were collected also from the Andaman Sea (Indian Ocean). Hydropuntia eucheumatoides, previously collected only from the Andaman Sea, was found to grow in the Gulf of Thailand (Samui Island). Four of the 18 species (Gracilaria irregularis, Gracilaria minuta，Hydropuntia fisheri， Hydropuntia percurrens) are relatively described as endemic to Thailand, while others are commonly found in Southeast Asian waters.In: Charoen Nitithamyong (ed.)
