SmugMug > all-time keyword > elongata > This is an image of the lower shore at La Valette during an extreme low water spring tide (ELWS) looking north along the coast.  Red algae covers the rocks including Palmaria palmata, Mastocarpus crispus, and many other frilly reds. The reproductive thalluses of the pale olive green thongweed, Himanthalia elongata, drape over the rock and brown kelp, Laminaria sp., poke out of the sea on the right of the image.

SmugMug > all-time keyword > elongata > This image of the lower shore at La Valette on Guernsey's east coast was taken from a platform of raised bedrock at the eastern end of 'overhang gully' overlooking 'cobble field'. The boulders with off-white surfaces have been turned over recently by shore gatherers looking for ormers, Haliotis tuberculata, (abalone).  This area is greatly disturbed by ormer gatherers. Quick growing green seaweeds such as freshwater tolerant gutweed and sea lettuce, Enteromorpha sp., grow over the surface of the rocks.  Palmaria palmata and thongweed, Himanthalia elongata, also grows profusely here.  Living in the interstitial spaces between the cobbles and boulders are a great variety of species including sponges, cnidarians (anemones and hydroids), crabs and shrimps, bryozoans, and fishes.
