Taxa Notes:
 
Naded 1110003: Loricas are fusiform with blunt pointed ends. Lateral margins are smooth and cells have a flaring mouth. Cell length is 27.3µm and width is 4.8µm.
Naded 1110005: Loricas are elongate and conical and tapper to a sharp point. Lateral margins are undulate and cells have a wide flaring mouth. Cell length ranges from 32.6-52.2µm and width ranges from 4.3-5.7µm.
Naded 455000: Cylindrical shaped filaments with net-like chloroplast. Cells enlarge towards cell junctions. Cell size varies.
Naded 863016: Cylindrical filaments in a thin sheath. Filament ends not tapper and cells are not constricted. Filament width is about 2.0µm.
Naded 852004: Filaments are incased in a sheath. Filaments are attached to substrate and have tapered ends. Filament width is about 1.4µm.
