Historical and Current Introduction/Spread

: Dead Man's Fingers is believed to have originated in Japan. It can

now be found along the coasts of Britain, Australia, New Zealand, the Mediterranean and on both the East and

West Coasts of North America. It was first collected in the San Francisco Bay in 1977 and was first discovered on

the shores of Nova Scotia in 1989. Since then, it has spread 1,200 km along the shores of Nova Scotia, Prince

Edward Island, and New Brunswick. Samples of Dead Man's Fingers collected in 2002 along these shores showed

a high diversity of morphological characteristics. This could either indicate that Dead Man's Fingers was

introduced in this area at different times or that it is extremely adaptable to local environments. A form of this

species was first reported in Prince William Sound Alaska in 1998. It is possible that this form is a subspecies of

native Codium found in Alaska; molecular studies will be needed to determine their relationship to each other.
