Description

The monomerous, crustose thalli are composed of a single system of filaments which grow close to the underlying surface. ''Lithophyllum'' reproduces by means of conceptacles. The

epithallus The epithallium or epithallus is the outer layer of a crustose coralline alga, which in some species is periodically shed to prevent organisms from attaching to and overgrowing the alga. Structure It is defined as the cells above the wikt:intercala ...
