Plants are uniseriate, branched filaments, forming entangled tufts to 10 cm or more in length attached to rocks and other seaweeds (e.g. Sargassum spp. ). Erect filaments are irregularly and sparsely branched at wide to right angles and form short , straight to curved “crampons”. Meristematic zones are scattered, consisting of short cells. Cells of erect filaments are 20–80 µm in length and 18–28 µm in width, containing many discoid chloroplasts with pyrenoids. Phaeophycean hairs are found laterally or terminally on erect filaments. Unilocular sporangia are spherical to oval, 25–55 µm in length and 25–55 µm in width, sessile or with a pedicel, and are formed on erect filaments.

In samples collected from Iwagasaki, Niigata Pref. and Ashikita , Kumamoto Pref., unilocular sporangia and phaeophycean hairs were observed, and crampons were rare ( Figure 2A–C View Figure 2 ). In contrast, in samples collected from Tachimachi-misaki , Hokkaido and Oohamacho , Hiroshima Pref., unilocular sporangia and phaeophycean hairs were not observed, and crampons were abundant. Plurilocular zoidangia were not found in field-collected samples. Plants were collected in winter from Yaekojima and Oohamacho , Innoshima , Hiroshima Pref., where monthly samplings were conducted from May 2010 to June 2011.

In cultured Acinetospora filamentosa , zoids from unilocular sporangia and plurilocular zoidangia showed similar developmental patterns. Settled zoids germinated unipolarly, forming a germ tube. Germlings developed into prostrate filaments, which produced erect filaments and phaeophycean hairs ( Figure 2D, E View Figure 2 ). Prostrate filaments were irregularly branched and their cells were globular ( Figure 2D, E View Figure 2 ). Young erect filaments had a terminal hair. Prostrate filaments formed plurilocular zoidangia ( Figure 2D View Figure 2 ), and erect filaments also formed plurilocular zoidangia but only on the lowermost portion ( Figure 2E View Figure 2 ). Erect filaments grew longer than prostrate filaments and formed scattered meristematic zones and lateral hairs. Cells of erect filaments were 25–75 µm in length and 18–27 µm in width. Plurilocular zoidangia were ectocarpoid, 88–135 µm in length and 30–44 µm in width, and were formed with or without a pedicel ( Figure 2D, E View Figure 2 ) at 10–25°C. Settled zoids from plurilocular zoidangia were round and 8.1– 11.0 µm in diameter. Unilocular sporangia were spherical to oval, 52–62 µm in length and 44–62 µm in width, and were formed either sessile or with a pedicel ( Figure 2F, G View Figure 2 ) on prostrate and erect filaments at 10–25°C. At 20°C LD, plants formed reproductive organs 3 weeks after germination. Plants usually produced unilocular sporangia after forming plurilocular zoidangia. In eight strains, unilocular sporangia were not observed on erect filaments while three strains did not produce any reproductive organs ( Table 1 View Table 1 ).
