Ectocarpus lucifugus Kuck. 160 : 1. posed coasts and in sheltered localities. It grows near high-water mark in small hollows in the basalt, though it has not been found in caves proper as is the case in Heligoland. In November it was found bearing a quantity of unilocular sporangia and Jonsson observed swarmspores in abundance when he looked through the material immediately after gathering. Found hitherto only at the following piaces: — Vide ro: Vedvig (H. J.); Bor do: Klaksvig (H. J.). 94. E. velutinus (Grev.) Kiitz. Simmons (1. c. p. 269) reports this species and writes with reference to it: »Auf Himanthalia lorea in Qualbofjord (S.)«. But.
