» Chrysophyta - Notes on this group, including information on Chrysophyceae or golden algae, Bacillariophyceae or diatoms and Xanthophyceae or yellow-green algae.

» Desmid - Information from Wikipedia on this order of green algae which have a variety of symmetric shapes which provide a basis for their classification.

» Desmids - Article by Wim van Egmond on these organisms with many excellent photographs of various species.

» Diatom - Information on this unicellular organism of the kingdom Protista characterized by a silica shell of often intricate and beautiful sculpturing.

» Diatoms - Research project by John Becker provides plenty of information on these organisms and a modest photograph gallery.

» Diatoms: Pseudo-nitzschia - Research project by Jennifer Shin provides information on this organism and diatoms in general.

» Golden Algae - Information from Wikipedia on this large group of unicellular flagellate algae, the Chrysophytes, found mostly in fresh water.

» Introduction to the Chrysophyta - Brief discussion of the group, also called golden algae, which is found in fresh water, particularly lakes. Includes information on some subgroups.

» Photomicrography Three - Images of a number of protist algae species including Eudorina elegans, the spherical ball of Uroglena, a Desmid called Closterium, Spyrogyra, Spirulina and a Daphnia that has recently eaten algae.
