蕨藻屬（Caulerpa）是蕨藻科下的一個屬。通常其一個細胞中會有多個細胞核，因此成為世界上最大的單細胞之一。
食用
蕨藻屬下的一些種可以食用，例如長莖葡萄蕨藻和總狀蕨藻——它們又常被統稱為“海葡萄”。在日本料理、印度尼西亞料理和菲律賓料理中經常用到。
入侵物種
蕨藻屬下的杉葉蕨藻則成了地中海、澳大利亞和南加利福尼亞的入侵物種，據信這些蕨藻之所以成為入侵物種要歸因於其在溫帶地區強大的生命力，而且缺乏天敵。總狀蕨藻也被發現出現於克里特島附近海域。
水族館
在水族館中蕨藻屬生物常被用來緩解水中的硝酸鹽含量。但是一些水族館隨意傾倒中有蕨藻的水也成爲了其入侵部份地區的原因，因此一些水族館換用列珠藻屬來取代蕨藻屬。[3][4]
