 A rare species, forming intricately interwoven masses which 

 float on the surface of the water in the muddy pools of brackish 

 water in the salt marsh at Fenham Flats. When old the colour 

 changes from the bright green of the young plant to a pale 

 yellow. The species differs from Cladophora fracta in the length 

 of its artictilations, which are eight or nine times as long as broad.
