A 2020 study looked at functional traits (blade mass per area, stiffness, strength, etc.) of 14 species of kelp and found that many of these traits evolved convergently across kelp phylogeny. With different species of kelp filling slightly different environmental niches, specifically along a wave disturbance gradient, many of these convergently ...
Pterygophora californica is a large species of kelp, commonly known as stalked kelp. It is the only species in its genus Pterygophora (Ruprecht, 1852). [2] It grows in shallow water on the Pacific coast of North America where it forms part of a biodiverse community in a "kelp forest". It is sometimes also referred to as woody-stemmed kelp ...
Macrocystis is a monospecific genus; the sole species is M. pyrifera.Some individuals are so huge that the thallus may grow to up to 60 m (200 ft). [6] The stipes arise from a holdfast and branch three or four times from near the base.
Laminaria is a genus of brown seaweed in the order Laminariales (kelp), comprising 31 species native to the north Atlantic and northern Pacific Oceans. This economically important genus is characterized by long, leathery laminae and relatively large size.
Laminariaceae is a family of brown algal seaweeds, many genera of which are popularly called "kelp". The table indicates the genera within this family. [ 1 ] The family includes the largest known seaweeds: Nereocystis and Macrocystis .
Lessoniaceae are a family of kelp. Species of this family have a transition zone with the intercalary meristem subdivided so that there are a number of secondary stipes in addition to the primary stipe .
The species Pelagophycus porra, also known as elk kelp, grows in temperatures of no higher than 60 °F (16 °C). It grows in subtidal forests in the coastal waters off southern California and northwestern Baja California Peninsula , in waters of 20 metres (66 ft) to 90 metres (300 ft) deep, anchored by a holdfast in sedimentary or loose ...
Three species, Durvillaea incurvata, D. antarctica, D. poha are buoyant due to a honeycomb-like structure in the fronds of the kelp that holds air. [ 3 ] [ 14 ] When these species detach from the seabed, this buoyancy allows for individuals to drift for substantial distances, permitting long distance dispersal .
