The brown seaweeds are arranged in three
groups-phae eosporeae. fucaceae and dictyotaceae

there are about 40 genera chiefly from the
colder seas. and varying in size from the minute

group, III which sexual reproduction Is effected
by swarm-spores; sexual reproduction also takes
place by the conjugation of cells, usually differing
from swarm-spores only by their fusion Here
also belong the tangles (lamnara), with fronds
borne on stalk that shows some advance in
structure. In the fucaceae of which the bladder
(himanthalia) are common examples the female
cells are non-motie, and the male cells free

The common Dictyota dichotoma and the rarer
peacock weed (padina pavona) may we'll repre-

effected by non-motile spores; the male and the
female cells are also non-motile single cell
