Fifteen to twenty species in warm seas. Some of the species of this genus resemble in external appearance species of Halymenia, from which they may usually be distin- guished by their structure. In the species of Chrysymenia the frond is hollow or nearly so, the wall consisting of one or two loose layers of large cells surrounded by one or two layers of small cortical cells; there are usually no filaments traversing the cavity.
