| Comments | According to Silva 1996 (ref. 006869) Kutzing assigned the genus to the “Desmidiaceae liberae”, and the diagnosis of this genus could apply to many different algae in more than one major taxonomic group (desmids, diatoms and chlorococcales). Six species, including 3 newly described were included in the original publication. See also Trochiscia Kutzing 1845 (ref. 001323). |
