- Diagnosis
- Bush-like, multibranched thallus. Most characteristic of the thallus are, in thin sections, the spine-like appearing elements at the surface of the thallus representing deepenings of honey-combed pattern. Medullar and cortical zones are not distinctly separated. The large siphons of the medullar zone are parallel to the axis of the thallus. The siphons of cortical zone diverge upwards and end as spine-like elements and between them to the outside.
