Asparagopsis taxiformis (Delile) Trevisan de Saint-Léon, 1845

Asparagopsis taxiformis is a red algae with cosmopolitan distribution in tropical to warm temperate waters.

Asparagopsis is one of the most popular types of limu in the cuisine of Hawaiii, it is principally a condiment. It is known as Limu kohu in the Hawaiiian language, meaning "pleasing seaweed". Limu kohu has a bitter taste, somewhat reminiscent of iodine and is a traditional ingredient in poke.
