Notes  Authority: (Dillwyn) Greville ex Harvey in W.J. Hooker, 1833 [details]

Diet: photosynthetic [details]

Distribution: Long Island Sound to Gulf of St. Lawrence [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]
