Lobomonas is a genus of green algae in the family Chlamydomonadaceae,[2] found in freshwater habitats.

[4] Lobomonas is a unicellular organism with two flagella, which are attached at the anterior apex of the cell.

Cells are ellipsoid, ovoid, or globose in outline and have a round or polygonal cross section.

Two or four contractile vacuoles are present, usually right below the flagella, but sometimes irregularly dispersed throughout the protoplasm.

[5] Asexual reproduction occurs by the formation of zoospores within the parent cell.
