Tubed Weed - Polysiphonia sp. I&#039;m not sure if the genus is correct, I&#039;m just guessing. This weed was so messy and fluffy -- it was really hard to get a good photo. There are numerous Polysiphonia species, and they require microscopy to ID to species-level. Some are epiphytes, while others can be found free floating or adhered to rock.<br /> <br /> Habitat: Subtidal pools Geotagged,Polysiphonia,Summer,United States,alga,algae,red seaweed,rhodophyta,tubed weed Click/tap to enlarge
