Neochloris

Neochloris is a genus of green algae in the family Neochloridaceae.

[2] Neochloris consists of spherical cells that are solitary or sometimes found in small clusters.

[3] Species once placed in Neochloris have now been placed in two segregate genera, Ettlia and Parietochloris.

[3] Additional features of the flagellar apparatus are visible in ultrastructure as well.

[3] The species Neochloris aquatica may have potential as a biological control agent against mosquitoes, specifically Culex quinquefasciatus.
