Late Mr. Yendo enumerates Phyllophora palmettoides J. Ag. in 

 his Notes on Algae IV (Bot. Mag. Tokyo 1916, p. 59) which seems most 

 probably to be the present plant. The present plant chiefly differs 

 from that by having intricated and creeping segments and not having 

 frond furnished with stem standing from callous disc.

Fronds filiform, ancipito-compressed, subcylindrical below, thickly 

 branched in alternato-pinnate manner, with widely parted divisions, 

 5-10 cm. high. Basal portion or lower half of main branches are 

 sometimes naked in well-grown frond, but the remaining portions are 

 regularly provided with longer or shorter pinnae which arise alternately 

 close to each other. Branches (fig. 2) are articulated in flexuose manner 

 with subcubical or pentagonal cells in their upper portion of the axis, 

 while the lower portion is more or less covered with rhizoidal cells 

 which make their appearance from basal cells of pinnae. Cortication
