Caulerpa lentillifera is a species of bryopsidale green algae from coastal regions in the Indo-Pacific. This seaweed is one of the favored species of edible Caulerpa due to its soft and succulent texture. C. lentillifera is farmed and eaten in the Philippines, where it is locally known under various names including latô and arosep; in the Malaysian state of Sabah, where it is known as latok and a popular dish among the Bajau peoples; in Okinawa, Japan, where it is known as umi-budō (海ぶどう), meaning "sea grapes"; in Vietnam, where it is known as rong nho or rong nho biển, meaning "grape algae" or "seagrape algae", and in Korea it is known as bada podo (바다포도) also meaning "sea grapes". It is sometimes known in English as green caviar or sea grapes (along with the related Caulerpa racemosa).[3] In Indonesia, and in particular Bali, it is known as bulung. *** Description sourced from Wikipedia (2019).
