Drachiella is a genus of marine red alga. [3] It has scaly thickenings; also " rhizoids fringing openings". [4] It is found below the kelp zone in areas exposed to moderate wave action; it is iridescent, and consists of a short, narrow stipe broadening into midribless thalli which reach 7 cm in length. [5] Drachiella exhibits diffuse intercalary and marginal growth, and rhizoids are common along the margins, which it uses for anchorage. [3] Pit connections often link adjoining cells. [3]
Drachiella spectabilis has been recorded from Inistrahull in Ireland. [6]
