Hedstroemia
Extinct genus of algae
The extinct genus Hedstroemia was once thought to be a rivulariacean cyanobacterium.[ needs update? ] It forms oval blobs composed of sinuous tubes that have rounded outlines and occurs in conjunction with Solenopora .
Hedstroemia was formerly assigned to the now obsolete taxon porostromata . In 2020, the genus was assigned to the cyanobacteria order Nostocales .
