Mastocarpus stellatus
''Mastocarpus stellatus'', also called Clúimhín Cait (cats' puff), carragheen, or false Irish moss, is a species of red algae closely related to Irish Moss, or ''Chondrus crispus''. It is collected in Ireland and Scotland, together with ''Chondrus crispus'' as Irish moss, dried, and sold for cooking and as the basis for a drink reputed to ward off colds and flu. The fronds are channelled unlike those of ''Chondrus crispus'', and it has a curved stipe whereas ''Chondrus'' has a flat one. It occurs commonly on rocks in the mid- and lower-intertidal.
''Mastocarpus stellatus'' is able to coexist with ''C. crispus'' on the northern New England coast despite being a competitive inferior to ''C. crispus''. A greater tolerance for freezing allows it to exist above ''C. crispus'' in northern environments where freezing stresses are significant. ''Mastocarpus'' is rarely found south of Cape Cod on the United States Atlantic coast because it is out competed by ''Chondrus'' when the freezing tolerances are lower.
