Chlorophytes are eukaryotic organisms composed of cells with a variety of coverings or walls, and usually a single green chloroplast in each cell. [4] They are structurally diverse: most groups of chlorophytes are unicellular, such as the earliest-diverging prasinophytes, but in two major classes (Chlorophyceae and Ulvophyceae) there is an evolutionary trend toward various types of complex ...
An example of Chlorophyceae genus Pediastrum.. The Chlorophyceae are a class of green algae, distinguished mainly on the basis of ultrastructural morphology.They are usually green due to the dominance of pigments chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b.

This category contains valid Chlorophyta species names. Alternate names (i.e. junior synonyms) are not included here. Italicized entries are articles about species in monotypic genera; these are redirected to their appropriate genus article.
Depending on the species, Chlorophyceae can grow unicellular (e.g. Chlamydomonas), colonial (e.g. Volvox), filamentous (e.g. Ulothrix), or multicellular. [example needed] They are usually green due to the presence of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b; they can also contain the pigment beta-carotene.
Chloropicophyceae is a class of green algae in the division Chlorophyta that, along with Picocystophyceae, coincides with the traditional "prasinophyte clade VII". [1] Chloropicophyceae has a single order, Chloropicales with a single family, Chloropicaceae .
Scenedesmus is one of the most common freshwater algae genera; however, the extremely diverse morphologies found within species make identification difficult. [4] While most species are found across the world, certain species exist only in local populations such as S. intermedius and S. serratus which are found in New Zealand.
Trentepohliales is an exclusively terrestrial order of Ulvophyceaen green algae. [1] [2] The order is characterized by traits like net-like chloroplasts without pyrenoids, cell walls with plasmodesmata and cytokinesis by production of a phragmoplast.
