Drachiella is a genus of marine red alga.[3] It has scaly thickenings; also "rhizoids fringing openings".[4] It is found below the kelp zone in areas exposed to moderate wave action; it is iridescent, and consists of a short, narrow stipe broadening into midribless thalli which reach 7 cm in length.[5] Drachiella exhibits diffuse intercalary and marginal growth, and rhizoids are common along the margins, which it uses for anchorage.[3] Pit connections often link adjoining cells.[3]
Distribution
Drachiella spectabilis has been recorded from Inistrahull in Ireland.[6]
