Abstract: - The Micro-morphology of fresh water algae is icredibly diverse, encompassing various cell shapes of round, oval, star shaped and spiral. The growth patterns of these species also have, unicellular, filamentous and colonial and cellular structures such as a protective cell wall composed of polysaccharides and glycoproteins and chloroplasts of varying shapes designed for light capture. These features vary significantly between algal groups including green algae, diatoms and cyanobacteria which are cruicial for identifying and understanding their ecological role. In this present study, the class chlorophyceae, 164 algal taxa were identified and they fall into 61 genera. All species were specific to particular habitats of Courtallam. Maximum species were Oedogonium and Spirogyra.
