Prasiolaceae is a family of green algae in the order Prasiolales. Members of this family are found in freshwater, terrestrial, and marine habitats.
Algae in the family Prasiolaceae consist of thalli with blades a single cell thick (i.e. monostromatic). Vegetative cells are polygonal with two to four cells arranged within a parent cell wall. Each cell has a single, stellate chloroplast and a central pyrenoid.
