Notes  Diet: photosynthetic [details]

Distribution: Long Island Sound to Strait of Belle Isle [details]

Habitat: on shell or stone or epiphytic on other algae in quiet waters from the mid-littoral to 15 m [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]

Synonymy: The synonymy was proposed by J. Agardh (1883: 15). Børgesen's 1932 record of Erythrotrichia
carnea
was listed by V. Krishnamurthy & Joshi (1970: 16) both as E. Carnea and ``Acrochaetium
carnea
J. Ag.''. [details]
