Chloromonas

Chloromonas is a genus of green algae in the family Chlamydomonadaceae.[1] It is closely related to the model green algae, Chlamydomonas, and distinguished mainly through the absence of a pyrenoid.[2]

gollark: Fascinating.
gollark: You seemed to complain when I said this about your ownership some time ago.
gollark: Okay, opinion generated.
gollark: Generating opinion. Please wait while I try and find screenshots or something because bad memory.
gollark: Yes. DO NOT excessively discretion. Not that I think moderation is good as a terminal goal in any case.
