Geppella is a genus of green algae in the family Codiaceae.^[1]

The genus name of Geppella is in honour of Anthony Gepp (1862–1955), who was a British botanist (Algology, Bryology and Pteridology) and cryptogam researcher.^[2]

The genus was circumscribed by Frederik Christian Emil Børgesen in Kongl. Danske Vidensk. Selsk. Biol. Medd. Vol.15 (Issue 4) on page 55 in 1940.

Derbesia is a genus of green algae in the family Derbesiaceae. The plant was originally known from different names applied to its larger sporophyte, Derbesia, and its less conspicuous gametophyte, Halicystis. Derbesia was successfully cultured in the laboratories of German phycologist Peter Kornmann to learn that both it and the plant Halicystis were different parts of the life cycle of the same organism.
