Klebsormidium ist eine im Süßwasser vorkommende Gattung aus der Grünalgen-Gruppe der Charophyta. Sie umfasst rund 17 Arten. Klebsormidium ist von der Sektion Phykologie der Deutschen Botanischen Gesellschaft (DBG) zur Alge des Jahres 2018 gekürt worden. Sie kann zwischen scheinbar leblos und Wiedererwachen hin- und herwechseln, wodurch sie auch Orte besiedeln kann, an denen keine anderen Pflanzen mehr gedeihen.

thumb|Klebsormidium bilatum Klebsormidium is a genus of filamentous charophyte green algae comprising 20 species. The name was proposed in 1972 to resolve confusion in application and status of Hormidium and was given for the German botanist Georg Albrecht Klebs.
The algae occurs mostly in soil and on moist substrates, nevertheless, aquatic and one marine species are also known. Many Klebsormidium-species are able to synthesize substances for UV protection, the so-called mycosporine-like amino acids. The draft genome sequence of Klebsormidium nitens NIES-2285 (called K. flaccidum at the time of publication) was published in 2014.
