Washingtonia filifera, commonly known as the California fan palm, cotton palm or desert fan palm, is a flowering plant in the family Arecaceae, native to the far southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. It typically grows 15–20 m (49–66 ft) tall and 3–6 m (10–20 ft) wide, with a sturdy, columnar trunk and waxy, fan-shaped (palmate) leaves. As a monocot, it is evergreen and exhibits a tree-like growth habit. It is the only palm species native to the southwestern United States, forming groves around perennial water sources in the Colorado, Mojave, and Sonoran deserts. These stands

Gonatozygon is a genus of green algae in the family Gonatozygaceae.

The Oedogoniales are an order of filamentous freshwater green algae of the class Chlorophyceae. The order is well-defined and has several unique features, including asexual reproduction with zoospores that possess stephanokont flagella: numerous short flagella arranged in a subapical whorl. The Oedogoniales have a highly specialized type of oogamy, and an elaborate method of cell division which results in the accumulation of apical caps. The order comprises one family, Oedogoniaceae, with four extant genera and one fossil genus. Some common features among these genera may be obscure. The

Cylindrocystis is a genus of algae belonging to the family Zygnemataceae. This genus displays a very simple morphology, characterized by an elongated-cylindrical cell shape, a lack of cell wall ornamentation, and two axial stellate chloroplasts with a centrally located nucleus. Each chloroplast contains a single, often elongated pyrenoid. Cylindrocystis cells are found growing solitarily, sometimes forming aggregrations inside of a gelatinous matrix . Phylogenetic studies by Gontcharov, et al (2010), Barcytė, et al. (2020) and Hess, et al. (2022) have outlined the polyphyletic state of said
