Intertidal reef flat - high-off sandy beach. Exposed at MWL. Very diverse algal assembalge no Angiosperms. browns more obvious near shore. reds abundant all over. greens more abundant near seaward, wave-washed ege & in gutters. Browns - Zonaria (rooled), small plants on lips of gutters inshore. Turbinaria v small stunted plants near seaward edge. Pockockiella gutters. dichotomous brown c central rib. Reds: Dichotomous types - most landward (1) rounded-broad - no bands - edge entire. (2) elongate - finely[?] sparsely serrate esge - bands across thalli (brownish) perhaps a third species & ? a fourth? Hard axis - bushy growth around it - little branches bifurcate at tips. Laurencia - bunches some bright pink red, others bright green - same? more abundant nearer to seaward edge. v fine red - [sketch] alternative "leaves" flat. Jointed coralline like stacked soft discs [sketch] - really lamellae or fringes in gutters. Eucheuma - bright green stunted - branchlets red or pink - in gutters & depressions, some colonies near seaward edge red. Greens: Anadyomene? like Ulva but rough & veined. Codium - massive, - thin branches. Halimeda - coarse. Hard bubbles ? Dictyosphaeria. Penecillus small. Spongy fan like thallus [sketch]. green filamentous. Caulerpa [sketch] semi-tabulate. Green mat. Above platform: Zone of brown filamentous algae - stiff filaments [sketch]. above this is zone of green filamentous algae -soft. Above this is zone of black algae - really very dark green. Jointed coralline [sketch].
