How about ... Cyanidioschyzon Merolae? It is a primitive red algae (hard to pronounce though!) or a better one is... Lemanea. That is a freshwater genus.

zygnema and spirogyra are examples of filamentous algae
Algae can be green, red, brown, or yellow depending on their pigments. Green algae, for example, contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis, while red algae contain phycoerythrin and phycocyanin pigments in addition to chlorophyll. Brown algae possess fucoxanthin pigments.
Examples of Rhodophyta, also known as red algae, include Porphyra (used to make nori in sushi), Gelidium (used in agar production), and Corallina (forms calcified structures in coral reefs). Red algae are known for their red pigments and unique cell structure.
No, red algae are not classified as flagellates. Red algae, belonging to the group Rhodophyta, are primarily non-motile and do not possess flagella at any stage of their life cycle. In contrast, flagellates are a group of protists characterized by their use of flagella for movement. Therefore, red algae and flagellates represent distinct groups within the broader classification of algae and protists.
Algae: Green algae, even red algae but phycoerythrin over populates it which gives the red algae its red color.
Yes, red algae and red marine algae refer to the same group of algae that are predominantly found in marine environments. They are known for their red pigmentation due to the presence of phycoerythrin pigments.
no
red algae.............
Red algae contain red pigments called phycoerythrins, which are responsible for their characteristic red color. These pigments help the algae absorb certain wavelengths of light that penetrate deeper in the water column, allowing red algae to thrive in lower light conditions compared to green algae.
the algae does affect it. the algae is a little monster that comes out and eats people.
