| Notes |
Authority: (Hudson) Carmichael in W.J. Hooker, 1833 [details] Diet: photosynthetic [details] Distribution: Long Island Sound to Strait of Belle Isle [details] Habitat: moderately high energy tide pools, low littoral and sublittoral to 4 m, on rocks and shells or small stones [details] Morphology: Red colour results from the dominance of the pigments phycoerythrin and phycocyanin; this masks the other pigments, chlorophyll a (no chlorophyll b), beta-caratene and a number of unique xanthophylls. [details] Reproduction: vegetative reproduction is rare; asexual reproduction is effected by the formation of various kinds of spores; Sexual reproduction is unique in this group due to their passive, non flagellated sperm cells (spermatia) [details] | ||||||||||||||||
