Division Chlorophyta View in CoL
Chlorophyta View in CoL comprises most of the species diversity of green algae. Members of this group inhabit marine, terrestrial, and freshwater environments and are characterized by considerable morphological diversity and a characteristic arrangement of the flagellar apparatus ( Moestrup 1978). The core Chlorophyta View in CoL includes three large and diverse classes: Trebouxiophyceae View in CoL , Ulvophyceae View in CoL , Chlorophyceae View in CoL (so called UTC-clade), and several small classes of generally small marine flagellates ( Leliaert et al. 2012; Del Cortona et al. 2020).
