Short description Morfologi

Thallus consists of a horizontal branched stolon and feather-like erect branches. Upcurved cylindrical pinnules are pinnately or distichously arranged along the side of the distal portion of branch axes and sometimes tristichously arranged at the lower or basal portion of the erect branches. Erect branches up to 10 cm in height (Ref. 80758).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Used for human consumption as food and medicine: antifungal, lowers blood pressure (Ref. 80758). Maximum depth from Ref. 102144. Inhabits sandy substrate with coral rocks in calm, shallow areas and moderately exposed habitats. It may form large colonies on sandy shallows, attached to shells, stones, and coral fragments or anchored on the sand. While quite able to grow luxuriantly in warm shallow tidepools or lagoons, this species is apparently not adapted to shaded habitats (Ref. 80758).
