LSID urn:lsid:algaebase.org:taxname:77441 [details]Unreviewed
Diet photosynthetic [details]Dimensions 10-45 cm long [details]
Distribution Long Island Sound to Strait of Belle Isle [details]
Habitat sublittoral [details]
Morphology Brown colour results from the dominance of the xanthophyll fucoxanthin; this masks the other pigments, Chlorophyll a and c (no chlorophyll b), beta-carotene and other xanthophylls. [details]
Reproduction general for group: most brown algae have an alternation of haploid and dioploid generations; The haploid thalli form isogamous, anisogamous or oogamous gametes and the diploid thalli form zoospores by meiosis. [details]
