Many specimens were found on the lowershore, growing on stones in pools, on west side of Lariggan Rocks, Penzance, Cornwall, 26.05.16.

I've arrived at this identification on looking in various books and I'm still uncertain, so the identification needs to be confirmed. There are numerous species that are similar to this one.

The main objective of this website is in furthering environmental awareness and education through the medium of photography. To increase awareness and access to the wildlife of the region and help
people find and identify it. Sometimes the difference between species is obvious but many species can only be determined by observing microscopic characteristics that are specific to any one species.
