SINGLE Cy Hampson photo ROLL up to $49.95 ; Several people have called lately, asking about seaweeds found along our shores, particularly at low tide. This is a very broad subject and the beginner will require assistance in fin- ding his way among the great variety of forms observed. Fortunately, Seaweeds at Ebb Tide (Guberlet, M.L.) and Seashore Life of Puget Sound, the Strait of Georgia, and the San Juan Archipelago (Kozloff,.E.N.) deal with many of the commoner forms, while many other books on marine biology will serve to supplement these. The world lying between high and low tides is a most fascinating one, supporting more animals and plants than | anywhere else on our planct. So it is a rewarding area to | study..

Teachers’ to protest the provincial govern- ments’: Outdoors | Unlimited By Cy Hampson Our Peninsula beaches, particularly the rocky ones, are very rich in seaweeds. One caller this week asked about the long brownish kelp with the bulb and pennants.at one end and the long bullwhip-like strand that tapers down to a sort of knot of woven root-like structures at the other end. This is the bull kelp, undoubtedly the most conspicuous seaweed along most shores where it has been washed in by the tides. This kelp grows in great beds offshore where it attaches to rocks by rootlike structures some 30 to 50 feet below the surface. The attachment is the holdfast while at the other end the gas-filled bladder, together with a long hollow region connected with it, serves as a float in order to hold the ribbon-like pennants near the surface where they can carry on the important process of photosynthesis. Bull kelp is often torn loose from its moor- ings in violent storms and carried to shore on the surf. Another ‘caller asked about the very thin bright green seaweed that grows higher up the beach and is often attached to rocks or shells. She mentioned that much of it seemed to be loose and covered much of the rocky shore. This is the sea let- tuce. When growing and attached to its small holdfast, it looks for all the world like a head of loosely arranged leaf let- tuce with tissue paper-thin leaves. This algae is fragile and often broken loose by wave action. Is it edible? Yes, but not in these waters which are so badly polluted. Sheets of red laver seaweed are often seen along our shores here. This seaweed is readily recognized. Since it is only one cell thick and shiny, it reminds.one immediately of the very thin rubber in a toy balloon. It even stretches a bit before tearing! The very handsome seaweed in our photo today is widely known.as the sea palm. It is an exceedingly graceful seaweed with its beautifully tapering glossy stem (or stipe) and the rib- bons at the summit which ‘drape artistically in a manner resembling the fronds of an attractive palm tree. The color is a rich olive-brown. It is nevertheless sturdily built and firmly anchored in the upper tidal region by stout fibres. Our neighbours next. door decided to see how many dif- ferent kinds of seaweed they can find along the shore this summer. heyy will nave ereat | fun. Sinden and Netty: Smith.
