Notes  Distribution: northern tip Labrador (Killinek Is.) and adjacent northern Quebec (Taylor 1957), also NE Atlantic; St. Lawrence River estuary, and perhaps a southern extension in offshore, deep water habitats of the Gulf of Maine (e.g. Cashes Ledge) (Sears 1998) [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]
