Wonder if these #brownalgae at Mill Bay #Salcombe #Devon are Dulse (Palmaria palmata) & Pepper Dulse (Osmundea pinnatifida), with the #redalgae Worm Weed (Dumontia contorta).
Also the marine #lichen (Lichina pygmaea). #algae #lichens #seaweed #phycologyfriday #seaweeds #alga #marinelife #sealife
Some fine Mermaid's Tresses (Chorda filum) & Thongweed (Himanthalia elongata) at Mill Bay #Salcombe #Devon, also Halopteris scoparia & unfortunately the alien #invasivespecies Japanese Wireweed (Sargassum muticum). #algae #PhycologyFriday #brownmacraalgae #marinelife #seaweed #sealife #brownalgae
Besides the common Saw Wrack (Fucus serratus) at Mill Bay #Salcombe #Devon, other brown #algae included Knotted Wrack (Ascophyllum nodosum), Oarweed (Laminaria digitata) & Furbelows (Saccorhiza polyschides). #wrack #fucus #seaweed #phycology #PhycologyFriday #MarineLife #brownalgae #Phaeophyceae
Seaweeds, Cornwall. August 2026
Note that C pelvetiae (below) is found on P canaliculata #seaweed fronds only, not fertile receptacles. Don't confuse with Mycophyscias ascophylli: 'inverted' or 'semi-' #lichen in which #alga provides both nourishment and structure, and #fungus lives within. That's found on receptacles, not fronds!

In beautiful Elberry Cove #Devon, other brown #algae include Beanweed (Scytosiphon lomentaria), Thongweed (Himanthalia elongata) & sadly, great forests of the alien #invasivespecies Japanese Wireweed (Sargassum muticum) 1st recorded in UK 1973 on Isle of Wight. #PhycologyFriday #marinelife #seaweed
Elberry Cove has a wealth of seaweeds, especially the brown #algae (Ochrophyta) Spiral (Fucus spiralis) & Saw Wracks (F. serratus) but also some Bladder Wrack (F. vesiculosus) & Rockweed (F. distichus). The words "wrack" & "wreck" come from the Norse word for "to cast ashore". #seaweed #marinelife
Collemopsidium pelvetiae: extraordinary 3-part #lichen involving #fungus, #cyanobacterium and #seaweed! Vanishingly few records in Britain. I suspect it's not quite so rare: I found it on 3 of 6 beaches searched on summer holiday in Scotland. Grows only on channelled wrack (Pelvetia canaliculata).
