Taxa Notes:
 
Naded 990007: Ovid shaped cell with a short, sharply pointed caudus. The caudus is either straight or slightly curved. Cell length ranges from 15.9-17.6µm and width ranges from 13.5-13.7µm.
Naded 897003: Filament with constricted cells. Cells are spherical and filament width is around 1.0µm.
Naded 510005: Cylindrical shaped cells arranged in a colony. Colonies contain four cells. The outer cells each have two long spines. All cells contain smaller spines. Cell length ranges from 4.4-7.5µm and width ranges from 1.9-2.9µm.
Naded 446000: Spindle shaped cell that is slightly twisted. Cell ends tapper to a pointed ends. Cell length is about 14.3µm and width is about 1.5µm.
Naded 863016: Cylindrical shaped filament without constricted cells. Filament ends are of equal size and do not tapper. Filament diamater is about 1µm.
