All Algae

The NCMA is the largest and most diverse collection of marine algae in the world. With almost half of the cultures in cryopreservation, our curators perpetually culture over 1500 strains. Hundreds of new strains are accessed into the collection each year. The collection is searchable by the Tree of Life or the world map.
Please note that sometimes the strain scientific name (the genus and species) may not be the same as the strain name when previously ordered. Please see culturing and media FAQs for an explanation.
