Die Zerbrechliche Armleuchteralge (Chara globularis, Syn.: Chara fragilis) ist ein in Deutschland recht häufiger Vertreter der Armleuchteralgen in nährstoffärmeren Gewässern. Sie erhielt ihren Artnamen auf Grund ihrer brüchigen Konsistenz nach dem Trocknen.

Compounds documented for Chara globularis across natural-product and food-composition databases — not just the ~150 nutrients on a classic label ("nutritional dark matter").
A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Chara globularis has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA16 detections
Where the DNA of Chara globularis was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
