Spirulina is a genus of cyanobacteria. It is not classed as algae, despite the common name of cyanobacteria being blue-green algae. Despite its name, the "spirulina" dietary supplement actually uses cyanobacteria belonging to the genus Arthrospira (which were formerly classified within Spirulina). [2]
