Taxa Notes:
 
Naded 803990: Filamentous cyanobacteria with randomly placed heterocytes. Resting cells are cylindrical shaped with a median constriction. Heterocytes are spherical to elliptic and have darker pigmentation than resting cells. Resting cells diameter is around 3.0µm. Heterocyte diameter is around 3.2µm.
Naded 888010: Filamentous cyanobacteria that has fused cells with no sheath. Cells are broader than long and the ends of filaments are boradly rounded. Filament diameter is around 7.0µm
Naded 990007: Cell shape is ellpitic and has short, very slightly curved almost striaght caudus. Cell length is around 20.0µm and width is around 12.9µm.
Naded 990990: Small ovoid shaped cells with very slight caudus. Cell length is 10.8 and width is 8.9.
Naded 990077: Orbicular with short, slightly curved caudus and one large paramylon body. Cell lenth is 18.9 and width is 18.7.
Naded 897003: Unbranched filament with constricted cell junctions.
Naded 510001: Cells are cylindrical shaped and arranged in a colony. Outer cells have two spikes and each colony has four spikes. Cell length is about 5.4µm and width is around 1.5µm.
Naded 995000: Small ovoid shaped cells with no collar or neck and cell wall is colorless. Cell length is 12.7 and width is 10.4.
Naded 1212000: Unbranched filaments with cylindrical shaped cells. Cells have H-shaped pieces.
Naded 863016: Filamentous cyanobacteria. Ends of fialment do not taper.
