Chara hispida L. è una specie del genere Chara, che raggruppa alghe d'acqua dolce. Essa si presenta in filamenti dai quali, a distanze più o meno regolari, spuntano dei ciuffi di aghetti morbidi, raggruppati in numero di 6 o 12. La pianta si diffonde prevalentemente in acqua dolce e come tale ama i corsi d'acqua a scorrimento regolare.

Compounds documented for Chara hispida 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 hispida has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA20 detections
Where the DNA of Chara hispida 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.
