The Chlorophyceae, also known as chlorophycean algae, are one of the classes of green algae, within the phylum Chlorophyta. They are a large assemblage of mostly ...
This list of genera in Chlorophyceae is sub-divided by order and family. Some genera have uncertain taxonomic placement and are listed as incertae sedis . The list is based on the data available in AlgaeBase , the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS) and other taxonomic databases.

Sphaeropleales is an order of green algae that used to be called Chlorococcales. [2] The order includes some of the most common freshwater planktonic algae such as Scenedesmus and Pediastrum. [3]
Chaetophorales is an order of green algae in the class Chlorophyceae. [1] Algae in the order Chaetophorales consist of filamentous, branched algae. The thalli have two parts, a prostrate and upright section and the filaments are variously branched. The algae are found in freshwater habitats or terrestrial habitats. [2]
Coelastrella is a genus of green algae in the family Scenedesmaceae. [2] It is currently classified in the subfamily Coelastroideae. [3]Coelastrella consists of solitary cells or clusters of a few cells.
Green algae, Scenedesmus Green algae, Crucigenia Scenedesmaceae is a family of green algae in the order Sphaeropleales. Scenedesmus algae are commonly found in freshwater plankton.
A factor that has long complicated the taxonomy of Scenedesmus and its related taxa is the fact that these algae show considerable phenotypic plasticity. This plasticity has led taxonomists in the past to designate thousands of infraspecific names based on minute changes in spine morphology or cell shape. [ 5 ]
