Where
seen?
This green seaweed is sometimes seen in clumps covering an area of
about 20cm, on coral rubble among seagrasses on our Southern shores.
Features: Each stem about 4-6cm
long with tiny bristles made up of many branched fine filaments, arranged
in whorls around the central 'stem' to give the overall appearance
of a stiff bottlebrush. Usually olive green.
