Gigartinales

Gigartinales refers to a diverse group of red algae notable for their robust, often bushy appearance. These plants thrive in marine environments, typically clinging to rock surfaces in tidal zones where the interplay of water and air enhances their nutrient absorption. Distinguished by their thick, cartilaginous textures, organisms within gigartinales play crucial roles in their ecosystems, both as food sources and habitat.
