Abstract:
Neochloris terrestris possesses ultrastructural features distinct from those of other species of Neochloris sensu stricto belonging to the Neochloridaceae. However, it was not classified properly due to the absence of phylogenetic information. We used an analysis of 18S rDNA sequence data as well as newly obtained ultrastructural data to support placement of this taxon in Chlororustica gen. nov. as C. terrestris comb. nov. in the Radiococcaceae.
