Ecklonia radiata, commonly known as golden kelp, common kelp, spiny kelp or leather kelp, is a species of

ecosystem services.[5]

Ecklonia radiata grows in kelp beds on reefs and where sheltered can form dense 'forests'.[6][4] It can be found in the low intertidal zone to depths of approximately 25 metres (82 ft) and rarely exceeds a body length of 1 metre (3 ft 3 in).[4]
