It have an unbranched thalli which often have a frilled margin. The thallus middle is greater than its base and can be as wide as 5 centimetres (2.0 in).[1] Its ruffle blades are 1–4 centimetres (0.39–1.6 in) long while its cells are 10–15 micrometres (0.00039–0.00059 in) in diameter.[3]
Habitat
They are littoral and sublittoral species which grow in muddy estuaries attached to pebbles or docks. They also can be found on rocks or in rock pools.[1]
Uses
The species is edible and therefore can be used as food and in cosmetic products.[2]
