It feeds on the algae Acetabularia acetabulum (from which it keeps the chloroplasts, that are able to continue photosynthesis in the slug's tissues) and Padina pavonia.
Epiphytes are common in some groups of plants, such as ferns, mosses, Strangler figs, lichens, and algae.
The salt desert supports very little plant life except for the blue-green algae that gives the Etosha its characteristic colouring, and grasses like Sporobolus spicatus which quickly grow in the wet mud following a rain.
Gonionemus is a genus of hydrozoan that uses adhesive discs near the middle of each tentacle to attach to eelgrass, sea lettuce or various types of algae instead of swimming.
There are two common kinds of grass jelly in Vietnam which are Mesona chinensis (called sương sáo in Vietnamese) and Tiliacora triandra (called sương sâm; sương sa or rau câu is the name for jelly made from various kinds of algae).

Their role is better filled in the average hobbyists aquarium by invertebrates such as Caridina multidentata and various species of snails, or simply with regular maintenance with an algae scraping implement.
The garden was created in 1857 by Gustave Thuret (1817-1875), a botanist best known for studies of reproduction in algae, who used it to conduct plant acclimatization trials with friend and lichen expert Jean-Baptiste Édouard Bornet (1828-1911).
His experimentation with the green algae Acetabularia provided a model subject for modern cell biological research, and proved the existence of morphogenetic substances, or mRNP.

In addition to these the museum houses other historical herbarium collections including those of Jean-François Gaudin (1766-1833) and Johann-Christoph Schleicher (1770-1834), as well as specialized collections of lichens, mosses, algae and fungi, myxomycetes (Myxogastria), and samples of seeds and pollen.
These are photosynthetic algae that provide nutrients for the polyps while themselves benefiting from a safe environment and an elevated, sunny position.
This and other species in the genus contain a green algae in the genus Coccomyxa and also cyanobacteria in the genus Nostoc as symbionts.
Some green algae of the class Charophyceae use phragmoplasts similar to those in embryophytes to organize and guide the growing cell plate.
The niches and crevices in this coral are home to a range of invertebrates and other organisms including brittle stars, sea urchins, polychaete worms, chitons and algae.
The Department of Energy's Aquatic Species Program experimented with raceway ponds for the cultivation of algae.
The project was to research action potential in the Algae Nitella, and the parenchama cells of the Mimosa pudica to determine their sensitivity to various external stimuli.
Males typically spent much of their time perched the leaves of floating vegetation such as water lilies or mats of algae.
However, other organism groups, such as calcifying algae, especially members of the red algae Rhodophyta, and molluscs (especially the rudist bivalves during the Cretaceous Period) have created massive structures at various times.
Here he collected on the Grimsel and the Oberland, and worked particularly at Red Snow and other freshwater algae, until weakness of the eyes compelled him to abandon the microscope.
It lives primarily on the red algae Corallina officinalis, after which it takes its name, but is also known to live on Irish Moss (Chondrus crispus).
Spores form a part of the life cycles of a diverse range of organisms such as many bacteria, plants, algae, fungi and some protozoa.
It favours rock pools and smooth rock covered with encrusting red algae such as Lithothamnion on which it feeds.
In adult shells the upper surface is invariably covered with algae, coralline and other, while the base usually supports a colony of Serpula.
