Klebsormidium (a genus of green filamentous algae)

Notes (MWS) A common genus forming wefts of very fine green filaments in freshwater. It shares the H-shaped cell walls with Ulothrix, but may be distinguished by the parietal chloroplast being unlobed and encircling no more than 80% of the cell, so that the cells often look half empty.
