seagrass

English to Portuguese Science Botany ecologia
Desculpem, na verdade a palavra correta era **seagrass**, não seaweed:
Contexto diferente do que já apareceu aqui no ProZ.
Traduzi como alga marinha, mas meu cliente diz que:
***seagrass*** is a very specific habitat and distinct from kelp or seaweed.

Ervas marinhas (Wikipedia) As ervas marinhas são plantas que produzem flor adaptadas à vida na água do mar. Estas plantas encontram-se em muitas praias e pertencem às famílias Posidoniaceae, Zosteraceae, Hydrocharitaceae e Cymodoceaceae. Têm um importante papel nos ecossistemas costeiros, não só pela sua produtividade, mas também por servirem de refúgio a muitos animais bentónicos.

O nome vulgar provém do fato das suas folhas se assemelharem, embora superficialmente, com as ervas terrestres da família Poaceae. Por vezes são confundidas com algas.
Carlos Quandt Nov 17, 2009:
seagrass é uma planta, não é alga "What we normally call seaweed falls into two very different types of marine vegetation, seagrass and marine algae. Seagrasses are regular plants with roots, leaves and flowers. Yeah, underwater flowers are a little strange, but they really do have them. Essentially, they make a living just like their land plant relatives."
