Halophila baillonis

  • ... that clover grass used to grow in the Pacific Ocean but has not been seen there since a severe storm in 1996? Source: "Halophila baillonii has a severely fragmented distribution in the Caribbean Sea, with the record complicated by instances of species misidentification. It occurs in several sites in the Greater Antilles, Colombia and Venezuela, and extensively in Belize. In the Pacific, there is a confirmed record of H. baillonii in Costa Rica in the Guanacaste province in 1994, at a depth of two m with a herbarium sample in La Universidad de Costa Rica. It was eradicated on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica in 1996 by a storm. Since 1994 this species has not been found on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica."
