Algae Group: Green Algae

Division: Chlorophyta

NOTE: This is a "placeholder" taxon name. Any specimens identified with a '?' following species .sp are sample-specific and only signify a unique taxon within the respective sample. This name should not be assumed to be consistent between samples, and certainly not across projects. This naming convention applies to rare taxa (<1%) that are too difficult to properly identify during sample analysis.
