oedogoniales
Oedogoniales is an order of filamentous green algae, named after the genus Oedogonium. These algae are usually found in fresh water and characterized by their unique method of reproduction involving zoospores or asexual spores, and a special process of cell division where the ring of the parent cell is lifted to create the new daughter cell. They also occasionally reproduce sexually through oogamy, defined by a mobile male sex cell and an immobile female sex cell.

Oedogoniales
The Oedogoniales are an order of filamentous freshwater green algae of the class Chlorophyceae. The order is well-defined and has several unique features, including asexual reproduction with zoospores that possess stephanokont flagella: numerous short flagella arranged in a subapical whorl. The oedogoniales have a highly specialized type of oogamy, and an elaborate method of cell division which results in the accumulation of apical caps. The order comprises one family with three genera. Some common features among these genera may be obscure. The hairs of Bulbochaete and the heterotrichous system Oedocladium are similar to Chaetophorales, with which they may share a distant relationship. Of the genus Oedogonium there are over 330 species, about 70 species of Bulbochaete, and 10 species of Oedocladium. More than half of these species are known to North America. Many of the species are used by aquarium owners. Members of the order usually inhabit still waters such as lakes and ponds, rather than rivers and streams. The oedogoniales include free-living and epiphytic members on other algae or freshwater angiosperms.
