Description: | This seaweed gets the name 'green sea fingers', or 'dead man's fingers', from its shape. It is not native to Britain and probably arrived here attached to shellfish, such as oysters, on the hulls of ships travelling from the Pacific Ocean. Only one cell forms the body of this seaweed. This specimen comes from Ross Sands in Northumberland. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | North East plants natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
