Pyrenomonas
Scientific classification Edit this classification
Kingdom: Chromista
Phylum: Cryptophyta
Class: Cryptophyceae
Order: Pyrenomonadales
Family: Pyrenomonadaceae
Genus: Pyrenomonas
Santore 1984
Type species
Pyrenomonas salina
(Wislouch 1924) Santore 1984
Species[1]
  • P. helgolandii U.Santore[2][3][1]
  • P. ovalis P.Kugrens, B.L.Clay & R.E.Lee
  • P. salina (Wislouch 1924) Santore 1984

Pyrenomonas salina, the type species, was characterized in 1984[5] but has since been renamed to Rhodomonas salina.[6] Therefore, making the genus Pyrenomonas a synonym of Rhodomonas.
