Radiococcaceae is a family of green algae in the order Sphaeropleales. [1]
As of February 2022 [update] , AlgaeBase accepted the following genera: [1]
Chlamydomonadales, also known as Volvocales, are an order of flagellated or pseudociliated green algae, specifically of the Chlorophyceae. Chlamydomonadales can form planar or spherical colonies. These vary from Gonium up to Volvox. Each cell has two flagella, and is similar in appearance to Chlamydomonas, with the flagella throughout the colony moving in coordination.
The glaucophytes, also known as glaucocystophytes or glaucocystids, are a small group of unicellular algae found in freshwater and moist terrestrial environments, less common today than they were during the Proterozoic. The stated number of species in the group varies from about 14 to 26. Together with the red algae (Rhodophyta) and the green algae plus land plants, they form the Archaeplastida. However, the relationships among the red algae, green algae and glaucophytes are unclear, in large part due to limited study of the glaucophytes.
Oocystaceae is a family of green algae, in the order Chlorellales. The type genus is Oocystis.
The Tetrasporaceae are a family of green algae, specifically of the Chlamydomonadales.
Chlorococcum is a genus of green algae, in the family Chlorococcaceae. The alga may be useful in the flocculation of lipids from wastewater.
Coenocystis is a genus of green algae in the family Radiococcaceae.
Elakatothrix is a genus of green algae, specifically of the Klebsormidiophyceae.
Micractinium is a genus of green algae in the family Chlorellaceae.
Pseudochlorella signiensis is a species of green algae in the family Koliellaceae. Pabia signiensis, the only species in the genus Pabia, is regarded as a synonym. Pabia was sunk into Pseudochlorella in 2016.
Schroederia is a genus of green algae in the family Schroederiaceae. Schroederiaceae is a monotypic taxon; Schroederia is its only genus.
Rhexinema is a genus of green algae in the order Ulotrichales. Recent research has suggested that the genus Helicodictyon is a synonym of Rhexinema.
Actinochloridaceae is a family of green algae, in the order Chlamydomonadales.
Characiaceae is a family of green algae in the order Sphaeropleales.
Sykidion is a genus of green algae. Pseudoneochloris is a synonym of this genus. As of March 2022, Sykidion was the only genus in the family Sykidiacaeae, which was the only family in the order Sykidiales.
Palmodactylon is a genus of green algae, in the family Radiococcaceae.
Palmodictyon is a genus of green algae in the family Radiococcaceae.
Chlorokybus is a multicellular (sarcinoid) genus of basal green algae or charophyte, a soil alga. It has been classified as the sole member of the family Chlorokybaceae, which is the sole member of the order Chlorokybales, in turn the sole member of the class Chlorokybophyceae.
Klebsormidiales is an order of charophyte algae. It is the only order in the class Klebsormidiophyceae, sister of the Phragmoplastophyta. As of February 2022, AlgaeBase accepted two families in the order:
Eutetramorus is a genus of algae belonging to the family Radiococcaceae.
Chlorosarcinaceae is a family of chlorophyte green algae, in the order Chlamydomonadales.
