Polysiphonia furcellata (C.Agardh) Harvey is small marine red alga in the Division Rhodophyta.
This red alga is a branched algae growing to 10 cm. The erect branches are ecorticate composed of a central axis of cells surrounded by 7 or 8 paraxial cells, all of the same length in a ring around the axial cells. The rhizoids are numerous growing from the pericentral cells. Gametangial and tetrasporangial plants are not known. Reproduction is by specialized propagules [1]
