A circle of red coralline algae. These are various articulated coralline algae collected from Botanical Beach at Port Renfrew on the west coast of Vancouver Island, where Josephine Tilden established the first marine lab on the west coast in 1900, named The Minnesota Seaside Station. Some of the species seen here are Corallina, Bossiella, Calliarthron, and others. The coralline algae are in the red group, thus their pink colour and they calcify in their cell walls as a strategy against herbivory.
