In this paper, marine brown algal diversity between coasts of four seas in Turkey is studied. Sampling was made from four different localities [Iskenderun Bay (Mediterranean coast), Ayvalık (Aegean coast), Dardanelles (Sea of Marmara), and Sinop (Black Sea coast)] of Turkey in the years from 2009 to 2014. In total, 127 brown algal taxa at specific and infraspecific levels were reported, and Ayvalık had the highest number of taxa (106 taxa), followed by Dardanelles (82 taxa), Iskenderun Bay (58 taxa) and Sinop (42 taxa), respectively. Choristocarpus tenellus Zanardini and Cladosiphon lubricus (Sauvageau) Kylin are reported for the first time from Turkey. Ten brown algae are classified as alien species in Turkey.
