    Batrachospermaceae [2] is a family of fresh water red algae (Rhodophyta). Genera within the Batrachospermaceae generally have a "Lemanea-type" life history with carpospores germinating to produce chantransia. [3] Sporophyte phase with meiosis occurs in an apical cell to produce the gametophyte stage. [3]
