Diagnosis Colonies erect, monosiphonic or polysiphonic, arising from creeping, rootlike, or disc-shaped hydrorhiza; hydrocauli branched or unbranched, hydrocladia alternate, opposite or in verticils, arising in polysiphonic hydrocauli from a single axial tube; hydrothecae typically small, uniseriate, usually at least partially adnate, occurring only on hydrocladia, with or without marginal cusps; nematophores with well developed nematothecae, not as naked sarcostyles; all nematothecae (axillar, cauline or hydrothecal) usually two-chambered (bithalamic) and movable, a minimum of three nematothecae adjacent to hydrothecae, one mesial inferior and a pair of lateral ones; gonophores as fixed sporosacs, exceptionally as swimming gonophores; gonothecae solitary, without nematothecae; with or without phylactocarps. [details]Spelling Spelling by Agassiz (1862: 358) was Plumularidae, Hincks (1868) introduced the correct spelling Plumulariidae. [details]
