Ecklonia cava
• E. cava is distributed only in the temperate
costal areas of the Korean peninsula and
Japan.
• Forms dense populations in clear waters.
• Utilized as food, fertilizer and animal feed.
• Underutilized marine bio-resource because of
its bitter taste.

7
• E. cava occupies sub-littoral deep water, 4-
25 m or more.
• Grows attached to solid substratum
anchored into place by fibrous holdfasts
• Forms 1-3 m in height dense population,
and called marine forest.
