Tetrapedia is a genus of green algae in the family Hydrodictyaceae. [1]
Charales is an order of freshwater green algae in the division Charophyta, class Charophyceae, commonly known as stoneworts. Depending on the treatment of the genus Nitellopsis, living (extant) species are placed into either one family (Characeae) or two. Further families are used for fossil members of the order. Linnaeus established the genus Chara in 1753.
Hydrodictyaceae is a family of green algae in the order Sphaeropleales.
AlgaeBase is a global species database of information on all groups of algae, as well as one group of flowering plants, the sea-grasses.
Eustigmatophytes are a small group of eukaryotic algae that includes marine, freshwater and soil-living species.
The Trebouxiophyceae are a class of green algae, in the division Chlorophyta. Their circumscription within the green algae is not well established due to the need for more genetic studies at higher levels within the group.
Bryopsidales is an order of green algae, in the class Ulvophyceae.
Botryococcus is a genus of green algae. The cells form an irregularly shaped aggregate. Thin filaments connect the cells. The cell body is ovoid, 6 to 10 μm long, and 3 to 6 μm wide. Fossils of the genus are known since Precambrian times, and form the single largest biological contributor to crude oil, and are a major component of oil shales.
Bryopsidella is a genus of green algae in the family Bryopsidaceae.
Pediastrum is a genus of green algae, in the family Hydrodictyaceae. It is a photoautotrophic, nonmotile coenobial green algae that inhabits freshwater environments.
Heterococcus is a genus of yellow-green algae in the family Heteropediaceae.
Trichosarcina is a genus of green algae in the order Ulotrichales. Filoprotococcus was once regarded as a synonym. However, Filoprotococcus is now considered valid in its own right. Trichosarcina is considered to be of uncertain validity.
Rhexinema is a genus of green algae in the order Ulotrichales. Recent research has suggested that the genus Helicodictyon is a synonym of Rhexinema.
Chlorochytrium is a genus of green algae, in the family Chlorochytriaceae.
The Mesostigmatophyceae are a class of basal green algae found in freshwater. In a narrow circumscription, the class contains a single genus, Mesostigma. AlgaeBase then places the order within its circumscription of Charophyta. A clade containing Chlorokybus and Spirotaenia may either be added, or treated as a sister, with Chlorokybus placed in a separate class, Chlorokybophyceae. When broadly circumscribed, Mesostigmatophyceae may be placed as sister to all other green algae, or as sister to all Streptophyta.
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.
Mesostigma is a genus of freshwater green algae, with a single species Mesostigma viride. As of February 2022, AlgaeBase classified it as the only genus in the family Mesostigmataceae, the only family in the order Mesostigmatales, the only order in the class Mesostigmatophyceae. It is now considered to be one of the earliest diverging members of green plants/algae (Viridiplantae).
Acicularia is a genus of green algae in the family Dasycladaceae.
Filoprotococcus is a genus of green algae in the order Ulotrichales. It was once regarded as a synonym of Trichosarcina. However, it is now accepted as a genus in its own right, and Trichosarcina is considered taxonomically uncertain.
Tribonema is a genus of filamentous, freshwater yellow-green algae. The holotype for the genus is the species Tribonema bombycina (C.Agardh) Derbès & Solier.
