Ivanovia
''Ivanovia'' is an extinct genus of marine green algae belonging to the order Bryopsidales and family Codiaceae. Species belonging to the genus lived from the Pennsylvanian to the Permian and have been found in the Moscow basin, North America, Italy, Tunisia, and China. Members of the genus have thalli (leaflike photosynthetic structures) that are cyathiform (cuplike in shape.) There are indications that asexual reproduction took place through budding of the thalli. Sexual reproduction also took place, through reproductive structures in stalked outgrowths of the thalli (oogonia and gametangia, the female and male reproductive structures of green algae.) Bioherms (fossil algal mounds) constructed by ''Ivanovia'' are prominent in the Paradox Formation of the Colorado Plateau, where they are important petroleum reservoir A petroleum reservoir or oil and gas reservoir is a subsurface accumulation of hydrocarbons contained in porous or fractured rock formations. Such reserv ...

Bryopsidales
Bryopsidales is an order of green algae, in the class Ulvophyceae. It is a diverse group of mostly marine macroalgae. Characteristics The thallus is filamentous, highly branched, and may be packed into a mass. It is coenocytic, having multi-nucleate cells consisting of cytoplasm contained within a cylindrical cell wall. There are no septae, and the many discoid chloroplasts, nuclei and other organelles are free to move through the organism. The whole organism may consist of a single cell; in the genus '' Caulerpa'', this single cell may be several metres across. In the genus ''Halimeda'', whole seabed meadows may consist of an individual, single-celled organism connected by filamentous threads running through the substrate. Reproduction Propagation is normally vegetative from small fragments which grow into new individuals. Under certain conditions, sexual reproduction occurs in a process called ''holocarpy''. Almost all of the cytoplasm in the thallus is converted into bifla ...

Acanthocodium
''Codium'' is a genus of edible green macroalgae (or seaweed) under the order Bryopsidales. The genus name is derived from a Greek word that pertains to the soft texture of its thallus. One of the foremost experts on ''Codium'' taxonomy was Paul Claude Silva at the University of California, Berkeley. Silva was able to describe 36 species for the genus, and in honor of his work on ''Codium'', the species ''C. silvae'' was named after the late professor. Taxonomy and nomenclature This genus is the largest member of the algal family Codiaceae and consequently under order Bryopsidales and it currently has about 143 confirmed species and four (4) unresolved members. Stackhouse, unfortunately, failed to provide holotype specimens for ''C. tomentosum'' (type species) and some of its dichotomously branching congeners leading to misidentifications; P.C. Silva delineated ''C. tomentosum'', ''C. fragile'', and ''C. vermilara'' and established neotypes for each species to finally resol ...

Geppella
''Geppella'' is a genus of green algae in the family Codiaceae. The genus name of ''Geppella'' is in honour of Anthony Gepp (1862–1955), who was a British botanist (Algology, Bryology and Pteridology) and cryptogam researcher. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by Frederik Christian Emil Børgesen in Kongl. Danske Vidensk. Selsk. Biol. Medd. Vol.15 (Issue 4) on page 55 in 1940. References

Lamarckia (Algae)
''Lamarckia'' is a Eurasian and African plant in the grass family. ;Species The only known species is ''Lamarckia aurea'', the golden dog's-tail or goldentop grass It is an annual plant, typically 30-45 centimetres in height, with clusters of golden flowers in a panicle 5–8 cm long and 2–2.5 cm broad. The species is native to the Mediterranean Basin and neighboring regions from Portugal to the Canary Islands east to Ethiopia and northern India India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the List of countries and dependencies by area, seventh-largest country by area; the List of countries by population (United Nations), most populous country since .... It is also naturalized in parts of Australia and the Americas, considered an invasive weed in some areas. ;Formerly included see '' Aegopogon'' *''Lamarckia tenella - Aegopogon tenellus'' See also Jepson Manual Treatment
