The thalli form small tufts up to 3 cm long. The axes are ecorticate consisting of axial cells surrounded by four periaxial cells.[1] DescriptionPolysiphonia atlantica is a small alga 3 cm high and dark reddish-brown in colour. It grows in tufts from prostrate axes producing numerous erect branches all growing to the similar lengths. The axial cells are surrounded by 4 periaxial cells which are elongate to the same length as the axial cells which are ecorticate. Attached by rhizoids produced by the periaxial cells.[1]ReproductionThe life history is a sequence of three phases: gametangial, carposporangial and tetrasporangial.[2] The plants are dioecious with spermatangial branchlets at the apices of the branches, cystocarps are slightly urceolate. The tetrasporangia occur the branches in a straight series.[1] HabitatGrowing on rock, mussels other invertebrates or epiphytic. Between high and low water levels.[1][3] DistributionRecords have been made from the British Isles- England, Ireland, Wales and Scotland, to Morocco, east coast of America and the Indian Ocean.[1] Most of the records from the British Isles are probably those of Polysiphonia stricta.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 4 Maggs, C.A. and Hommersand, M.H. 1993 Seaweeds of the British Isles.
