Excerpt from Notes on the Development of the Holdfasts of Certain Florideae Both carpospores and tetraspores were germinated and most closely resembled one another in their development. In some cases, however, tetraspores attached themselves to the substratum less readily than carpospores. This is regarded by Brannon (2) as an adaptation to the immediate distribution of the species.
