Fossils (Inventory)/Algae

Jump to: navigation, search

The Algae field of the Fossils section should be used to record any observation of fossil algae.

There are about a dozen different types of algae that have been identified in the Guadalupes through fossil impressions. They appear as thin, multiple uniform layers. They may be straight, tightly curved, or stacked. They can be found in the massive reef or forereef.
