Morphology Green colour from Chlorophyll a and b. [details]
Reproduction general for group: asexual reproduction may be by fission (splitting), fragmentation or by zoospores (motile spores). Sexual reproduction may be isogamous (gametes both motile and same size); anisogamous (both motile and different sizes-female bigger) or oogamous (female non-motile and egglike; male motile) [details]
Taxonomy Either link (1820: 5) or Greville (1830: lxvi, 179) is traditionally credited with having first made the combination Enteromorpha intestinalis, but in fact it was Nees (1820) who did so in the Index that he prepared for the collective work in which Link’s article was published (Silva, Meñez & Moe, 1987: 92).
