Acrochaete is a genus of marine green algae of the family Ulvellaceae known to live as endoparasites of other algae, although they may eventually be found growing on inorganic substrates, such as rocks.[1][2]
Description
Species of Acrochaete are small prostrate and filamentous algae with irregularly branched filaments. The cells produce hyaline hairs, which are considered a diagnostic character of the genus.[2]
