Note: for strains where we have DNA barcodes we can be reasonably confident of identity, however for those not yet sequenced we rely on morphology
and the original identification, usually made by the depositor. Although CCAP makes every effort to ensure the correct taxonomic identity of strains, we cannot guarantee
that a strain is correctly identified at the species, genus or class levels. On this basis users are responsible for confirming the identity of the strain(s) they receive
from us on arrival before starting experiments.
For strain taxonomy we generally use AlgaeBase for algae and
Adl et al. (2019) for protists.

| Collection Site | Hopkins River Falls, Victoria, Australia |
| Notes | Location conditions - salinity < 1 ppt, 27 km up river, 40 m above sea level; devoid of DGTA; ITS phylogenetic studies show that this strain belongs to sub group 2d in the publication Stache-Crain et al (1997), for which Peters et al (2015) have reinstated the name Ectocarpus subutulus (Kützung). This species represents a subgroup of Ectocarpus; This macroalgal culture contains bacteria and probably other organisms in low numbers, we are happy to provide further info on specific strains if you contact us which can tolerate low salinity and high temperatures.
