- Eremosphaera consists
of spherical or angular unicells that may be as large as 300
µm. The cells sometimes remain in groups of 2-4 if the
daughter cells do not separate completely from the parent
- cell after division. Sometimes a mucilage
envelope
- is present. Each cell has numerous discoid,
parietal chloroplasts with pyrenoids and lumps of starch grains.
The chloroplasts radiate outwards from the cell center in strands
of cytoplasm. The cell wall is composed of numerous layers.
