Authority (Zanardini) P.C. Silva in P.C. Silva, Meñez & R.L. Moe, 1987 [details]Diet photosynthetic [details]
Distribution Long Island Sound to Strait of Belle Isle [details]
Habitat shallow sublittoral on shells and stones, sublittoral 2-8 m [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]
