Common names

(as Bonnemaisonia hamifera Hariot)
English: Bonnemaison's Hook Weed (Bunker et al. 2010).

Description
In Ireland and Britain, gametophyte plants occurring from March-June, brownish-red, fronds feathery, with a slightly flattened axis to1 mm wide and 350 mm long, attched to Cytstoseira and other algae by crozier-shaped, hook-like modified branches. Tetrasporophyte (Trailliella-phase) plants occurring all year round, but most obvious in October-March, brownish-red, much branched, filamentous, in dense cotton-wool-like tufts to 25 mm in diameter.

Habitat
Probably introduced from Japan or its environs, at the end of the last century; gametophyte first found in Europe (Isle of Wight) in 1893, on rocks and other algae, lowest intertidal and subtidal, southern and western coasts, rare. Tetrasporophyte first recorded in British Isles (Dorset) in 1890, epiphytic on Corallina, lower tidal pools and subtidal, now widely distributed on southern and western coasts to Shetland Isles, frequent and can be abundant in certain locations, notably where there are large, lagoon-like lower intertidal pools.

Key characteristics
Crozier-shaped hooks for secondary attachment; sesonal occurrence from March to June.

Similar species
Gametophyte: B. asparagoides, which lacks the crozier-shaped hooks and is largely a subtidal plant. Tetrasporophyte: ball-like habit is shared with the 'Falkenbergia-phase' of Asparagopsis armata. A microscope is required to distinguish the two: the tetrasporphyte of B. hamifera has small colourless cells that alternate from side to side of the filamet; these are absent in the tetrasporphyte of A. armata, which, in addition, is several cells in width.
