Arvind Singh

I don't think that it is Oedogonium.

Ashfaque Ahmed

I also agree with Dr. Arvind

Sunit Mitra

Dear Sahoo,

No it is not Oedogonium. It is probably Coleochate or near relatives of Coleochate.

Gobardhan Sahoo

Thank you very much.

Geddada Mohan Narasimha Rao

Oedogonium is unbranched filementous form with cap cells and oogonia ( these are identification marks for Oedogonium)

Further Coleocheate is discoid structure with reduced erect system and I don't know whether it is Coleochete or not

I strongly believe it may be cluster of algal forms which form the bloom. so better to isolate the individual filaments and examine under the microscope.
