Dictyota Moniliformis
''Dictyota'' is a genus of brown seaweed in the family Dictyotaceae. Species are predominantly found in tropical and subtropical seas, and are known to contain numerous chemicals ( diterpenes) which have potential medicinal value. As at the end of 2017, some 237 different diterpenes had been identified from across the genus. Taxonomy and Nomenclature The genus ''Dictyota'' was first described by Jean Vincent Lamouroux in 1809. The name ''Dictyota'' is derived from the Greek word “Διχτυον” meaning “net” or “network”, referring to the inner cellular structure of specimens when viewed under a microscope, which features netted cortical and medullary cells. ''Dictyota'' belongs to the order Dictyotales and the SSDO-clade, which also includes the orders Sphacelariales, Syringodermatales, and Onslowiales. The family Dictyotaceae is divided into two tribes: Dictyoteae and Zonarieae. The former have a single lens-shaped apical cell from which the thallus grows, ...

Dictyota Dichotoma
''Dictyota dichotoma'' is a species of Brown algae found in the temperate western and eastern Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea, the Red Sea and the western Indian Ocean. Description The thallus of ''Dictyota dichotoma'' grows in tufts and is a yellowish-brown or greenish colour, with a faint bluish iridescence when underwater. It forms membranous, flattened, dichotomously-branching fronds up to long and wide. These have a reticulated (net-like) structure and no midrib. The tufts are semi-erect and have little or no stalk; they are anchored to the seabed by rhizoids, filamentous outgrowths that can absorb nutrients from their surroundings. The thallus branches are strap-like, the branches being equal in length and having rounded ends. Clusters of spores develop in round or oval Sorus, sori under the surface of the thallus, finally bursting through. Distribution and habitat ''Dictyota dichotoma'' has a wide range, being found in the western Atlantic Ocean and ...

An Old English equivalent name was Garweald, the likely original name of Gerald of Mayo, a British Roman Catholic monk who established a monastery in Mayo, Ireland in 670. Nearly two centuries later, Gerald of Aurillac, a French count, took a vow of celibacy and later became known as the Roman Catholic patron saint of bachelors. The name was in regular use during the Middle Ages but declined after 1300 in England. It remained a common name in Ireland, where it was a common name among the powerful FitzGerald dynasty.

British novelist Ann Hatton published a novel called ''Gerald Fitzgerald'' in 1831. Author Dorothea Grubb published her novel '' ...
