Martensia jejuensis is a species of red algae.[1] This red alga was first described by Lee Yongpil (이용필) in 2004.[2][3]
In South Korea, it is found in the warm waters of the southern coasts off Mokdo, Bijindo, Chujado, and Jeju[4] (whence it derives its epithet, jejuensis). It is also found off southern Japan, Indonesia, and Australia.[4]
