Chlorococcales
Chlorococcales is a formerly recognized order of green algae in the class Chlorophyceae. As of February 2022[update], the type family Chlorococcaceae was placed in the order Chlamydomonadales.[1]
Conventionally, many groups of coccoid green algae were lumped in the order Chlorococcales sensu lato by Komárek & Fott (1983), based on Pascher's (1918) idea of establishing orders according to life forms. However, coccoid green algae are currently placed in several orders of
Chlorokybales, Desmidiales).[2]
