#coralline #algae #rhodolith #maerl
Brazil hosts the world’s largest rhodolith beds—home to 1,000+ species, many threatened or endemic. Yet most lack protection and face mounting threats. Urgent action is needed to safeguard these vital biodiversity hotspots.

#rhodolith, #biodiversity
A very long-legged crab with little flappy red algae growing on its legs for camouflage. It sits on a muddy seafloor with more red algae and is basically not visible.
Diving over a #rhodolith bed the other day. Rhodoliths are calcareous red algae that are not attached to anything and just form little balls on the seabed. They are a highly biodiverse habitat and I saw so many species I have never seen before! Spot the cheerleeder #crab!
