Drachiella is a genus of marine red alga.

[2] It has scaly thickenings; also "rhizoids fringing openings".

[3] 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.

[2] Pit connections often link adjoining cells.

[5] Drachiella spectabilis has been recorded from Inistrahull in Ireland.
