Diagnosis:

Anagnostidis (2001): Cyanophycea filamentosa; filamenta solitaria vel in colonias aggregata, praecipue periphytica, e trichomatibus vaginisque composita, heteropolaria, raro false divaricata. Vaginae plus minusve firmae, praecipue lamellosae, interdum coloratae, ad apices apertae, trichomam
unam continentes. Trichomata heteropolaria, basim dilatata (1.5-13.2 um lata), ad apices gradatim et flagellatim attenuata at elongata, semper sine heterocytis, akinetis et aerotopis. Cellulae contentu homogeneo vel granuloso, perpendiculariter dividuntur, ad apices elongatae, contentu plus minusve hyalino; cellula apicalis tenuis cylindrica,
elongata. Reproductio desintegratione trichomatum.
