Seaweed descriptions and pictures

Here is a selection of about 120 common seaweeds from the north-eastern Atlanic, most of which occur in Norway, Britain, Ireland, Atlantic France and Spain, and Portugal. Web pages have so far been completed for those with links (underlined). Please bear with me while the descriptions and pictures are refined. It is also intended to provide a synoptic, interactive key later. Suggestions for additions and corrections to Michael Guiry. Where there is no common name in brackets, none exists.

Red algae (Dulse, Carrageen Moss, etc.)
