Abstract The phylogenetic position of the subantarctic brown macroalga Desmarestia chordalis was inferred from nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer sequences, which were compared with published homologous sequences of putative relatives. According to the molecular data, D. chordalis is closely related to the Antarctic species D. menziesii, and more distantly related to other taxa of similar morphology, i.e. Antarctic D. anceps and northern hemisphere D. aculeata.
