Dear Dr. Rezzoum,

D & E are close to Dictyota sp.

Best regards

Deepak

 E SLIDE IS Dictyota  sure 

I feel A is Osmundea pinnatifida (Hudson) Stackhouse. 

Dear all

Thank you very much for you help.

For A I' m sure it's not Gigartina pistillata.

Rezzoum

Dear Rosemary,

I agree with you for the slide E : The species of Dictyota we have in Morocco look differents to this one in the picture.

Best regards

Rezzoum

Hi Rezzoum,

A - Laurencia sensu lato (check the key of Canary Islands)

B - Callophyllis sp. (check the key of the british isles)

C - I would say Gigartina pistillata (Check the transversal section and the key of Galicia)

D - Check Taonia (in the tips if it is grotwing by one lenticular cell -Dictyota-, a line of cells -Taonia- or by filaments -Cutleria-, you can check the key of the Canary islands)

E - It is a picture and seem to be Palmaria but check also Stenogramme interrupta.

Cheers,

Ricardo

Dear Ricardo

Thank you very much for your help to identification of these algae.

Sorry,

B - Calliblepharis jubata?, I always mix both genera.

Ok

Thank you very much.

Best guess, 

B. Calliblepharis jubata as suggested by Dr Ricardo

D. Gracilaria textorii

E.  Dictyota sp. please check with the keys for confirmation.
