Phaeosaccion is a genus of algae with monostromatic tubular to saccate thalli, up to 20 centimetres (7.9 in) long and to 2 centimetres (0.79 in) wide. It is classified in the family Phaeosacciaceae.[2] It is olive brown and resembles young plants of Scytosiphon.[2] The sole type in the genus is Phaeosaccion collinsii, a species of marine algae.[3][4] It was first identified in a publication by W.G. Farlow in the article Notes on New England algae published in Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club in 1882.[5] It was named in honor of Frank Shipley Collins.[4]: 56 Phaeosacchion collinsii is red listed in Iceland as a vulnerable species (VU).[6]
