Short description Morphology

Thalli erect, green to greenish brown in colour. Branching repeatedly subdichotomous- divaricate, forming broad rounded axils (especially at the basal portion of the thallus); one branch of the dichotomy more developed than the other and continuous with the main branch below it. Branches cylindrical-compressed, adhering to each other at some points by cushion-like rhizoidal structures. Medullary filaments cylindrical and branched, giving rise to inflated club-shaped utricles forming the cortex. Thallus up to 6 cm in height (Ref. 80758).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Used for human consumption and as medicine: antibacterial, antitumor (Ref. 80758). Forms loose clumps on sandy-rocky substrates in the lower intertidal and upper subtidal zone of the reef (Ref. 80758).
