picture info	Brown Algae Brown algae (singular: alga), comprising the class Phaeophyceae, are a large group of multicellular algae, including many seaweeds located in colder waters within the Northern Hemisphere. Brown algae are the major seaweeds of the temperate and polar regions. They are dominant on rocky shores throughout cooler areas of the world. Most brown algae live in marine environments, where they play an important role both as food and as a potential habitat. For instance, '' Macrocystis'', a kelp of the order Laminariales, may reach in length and forms prominent underwater kelp forests. Kelp forests like these contain a high level of biodiversity. Another example is ''Sargassum'', which creates unique floating mats of seaweed in the tropical waters of the Sargasso Sea that serve as the habitats for many species. Many brown algae, such as members of the order Fucales, commonly grow along rocky seashores. Some members of the class, such as kelps, are used by humans as food. Between 1,500 a ...

	Cutleria (alga) ''Cutleria'' is a genus of brown algae (class Phaeophyceae), one of 2–6 genera in the order Cutleriales. AlgaeBase recognises 11 species in the genus. The genus was described circumscribed by Robert Kaye Greville in Algae Brit. Vol.44 on page 59 in 1830. The name of ''Cutleria'' is in honour of Catharine Cutler (who died 1866), an English botanist, who specialised in Marine Botany and worked in Sidmouth Sidmouth () is a town on the English Channel in Devon, South West England, southeast of Exeter. With a population of 12,569 in 2011, it is a tourist resort and a gateway to the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. A large part of the town h ..., Devon.

	Zanardinia ''Zanardinia'' is a monotypic genus of seaweed in the brown algae (class Phaeophyceae). The only species, ''Zanardinia typus'', commonly known as penny weed, is native to the northeastern Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. The genus was circumscribed by Giovanni Domenico Nardo ex Giovanni Antonia Maria Zanardini in Mem. Real. Accad. Sci. Torino ser.2, vol.4 on page 236 in 1841. The genus name of ''Zanardinia'' is in honour of Giovanni Antonio Maria Zanardini (1804–1878), who was an Italian physician and botanist who specialized in the field of phycology. Description This brown alga is loosely secured to the rock by the felted rhizoids on the underside. Young individuals are circular and have a smooth surface and a double fringe of short hairs round the margin. Older individuals may be up to across and be fan-shaped or have broad blades with irregular margins. The consistency of the thallus is cartilaginous or leathery, and the colour is yellowish-brown or olive bro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Family (taxonomy) Family ( la, familia, plural ') is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". What belongs to a family—or if a described family should be recognized at all—are proposed and determined by practicing taxonomists. There are no hard rules for describing or recognizing a family, but in plants, they can be characterized on the basis of both vegetative and reproductive features of plant species. Taxonomists often take different positions about descriptions, and there may be no broad consensus across the scientific community for some time. The publishing of new data and opini ...
