uninvestigated in Pacific coast populations; in Europe, alternation of isomorphic phases, a sporophyte that produces quadriflagellate zoospores alternating with unisexual gametophytes that produce slightly unequal biflagellate gametes; parthenogenetic development of gametophytes by unfused gametes (Bliding 1963, p. 74); sexual reproduction absent in Texas (Kapraun 1970, p. 221)
