Penicillus Capitatus
''Penicillus capitatus'' is a species of macroalgae, seaweed, that is part of the Udoteaceae, a larger family of algae. The ''P. Capitatus'' is a member of green macroalgae, Chlorophyta, so they share some similarities to their terrestrial counterparts. Due to their distinct shape, the ''Penicillus'' genus can be referred to as Brush Seaweed, Shaving Brush, or the Mermaid's Shaving Brush. Description ''Penicillus capitatus'' is green in color, and vertically protrudes from the surface they grow on. It uses rhizoids, a type of root hair that aids in adhesion and the transport of water, as a holdfast in order to stabilize itself on the surface that it is actively growing from. Average lengths of the P. ''capitatus'' can vary; younger, smaller samples tend to be around 5 cm, while fully mature ones can be measured at 15 cm.This species of macroalgae are capitate, which means that the longer stipe grows into a much wider capitulum. The diameter of the top can range from 5 to 8 cen ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

Udoteaceae
Udoteaceae is a family of green algae, in the order Bryopsidales. Description Udoteaceae is a family of green algae that belongs to the order Bryopsidales. Udoteaceae are most abundant in reef ecosystems as it serves an important ecological role as a primary producer, contributor to carbonate fluxes, and it serves as protection or food for other marine organisms. Udoteaceae is the most morphologically complex family belonging to the order Bryopsidales. Along with its high morphological complexity, Udoteaceae also has high species diversity. There are fourteen genera, eight extant, belonging to the family Udoteaceae, however only four are officially accepted. There are twenty-four species belonging to these genera, however because genetic information on Udoteaceae is limited, these species are classified primarily from morphological features. Udoteaceae’s structure is siphonous and composed of a giant, multinucleate tubular cell. Udoteaceae contains taxa that are either ...
