Schroederiella

Schroederiella is a genus of green algae in the family Scenedesmaceae.

The genus name of Schroederiella is in honour of Ludwig Julius Bruno Schröder (1867–1928), who was a German teacher, botanist (Algology and Bryology), also Hydrobiologist and Zoologist.

[3] Schroederiella consists of colonies (called coenobia) of eight (sometimes four) cells.

The cells are arranged alternately in a ring shape, and are attached to each other near their poles.

Four or eight autospores are organized into the shape of a coenobium; they are released from a tear the mother cell wall.
