Stephanodiscaceae is a family of diatoms belonging to the order Stephanodiscales. [1]
Genera include: [1]
Prasiola is a genus of fresh water and marine green algae. Each individual plant is small but they usually grow side by side to form a green turf on rock surfaces. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution.
Craticula is a genus of diatom that lies on or in the top layers of sediments in the freshwater to brackish water environments it inhabits. In addition to frustule morphology the genus differs from closely related species by its sexual reproduction and movement in response to light.
Klebsormidium is a genus of filamentous charophyte green algae comprising 20 species. The name was proposed in 1972 to resolve confusion in application and status of Hormidium and was given for the German botanist Georg Albrecht Klebs.
Eugene F. Stoermer was a leading researcher in diatoms, with a special emphasis on freshwater species of the North American Great Lakes. He was a professor of biology at the University of Michigan School of Natural Resources and Environment.
Navicula stesvicensis is a species of algae in the genus Navicula which has been isolated from the Danube river.
Stylobryon is a monotypic genus of golden algae in the family Dinobryaceae. It has one known species Stylobryon insignisFromental, 1874.
Eunotiaceae is a family of diatoms in the order Eunotiales that includes the following genera:
Navicula cari is a species of algae in the genus Navicula. Navicula cari occur in eutrophic waters.
Tolypella is a genus of green algae belonging to the family Characeae.
Achnanthidium is a genus of diatoms belonging to the family Achnanthidiaceae.
Aneumastus is a genus of diatom belonging to the family Mastogloiaceae.
Spicaticribra is a genus of diatoms belonging to the family Stephanodiscaceae.
