Loefgrenia is a monospecific, freshwater, epiphytic genus of nonheterocystic cyanobacteria known from Brazil. [1]
The type and only known species for the genus is Loefgrenia anomala.
The genus name of Loefgrenia is in honour of Johan Albert Constantin Löfgren (1854–1918), known as Albert Löfgren or Alberto Löfgren, was head of the botany department of the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden around 1905. [2]
The genus was circumscribed by Maurice Augustin Gomont in Alg. Aq. Dulc. Exsicc. on page 1350 in 1896.
Lambia is a genus of green algae in the family Bryopsidaceae.
Arnoldiella is a genus of green algae in the family Pithophoraceae.
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.
