Ascoseira is a monotypic genus of seaweed in the brown algae (class Phaeophyceae).[3][4] The single and type species, Ascoseira mirabilis Skottsberg, is a large parenchymatous macroalgae, and is endemic to the Antarctic Ocean.[5] Ascoseira is assigned to its own order.[3][6] The alga grows in subtidal waters at depths of from 3 to 15 meters.[7]
