The cryptomonads (sometimes called cryptophytes) are a superclass of algae and colorless flagellates, most of which have plastids. They are traditionally considered a division of algae among phycologists, under the name of Cryptophyta. They are common in freshwater, and also occur in marine and brackish habitats. Each cell is around 10–50 μm in size and flattened in shape, with an anterior groove or pocket. At the edge of the pocket there are typically two slightly unequal flagella. Some may exhibit mixotrophy. They are classified as superclass Cryptomonada, which is divided into two classes:

クリプト藻は遊泳性の単細胞藻類で、淡水及び海水に広く分布する。人目に触れる機会は少ないが、一般的な池や湖沼の水を観察すればほぼ確実に目にする事ができる生物である。藻類の中でも小型の部類に入り、体長は3-50μm前後。およそ200種が知られているが、生活環の各ステージの細胞に別個の学名が与えられている、つまり命名が重複している可能性のある種が含まれている。
