Principles of Taxonomy, especially pertaining to the Algae are discussed at length. Though primarily based on morphology, other criteria, such as reproduction and life history flagellation, cytological details, pigmentation, nature of metabolic products, etc., play a distinct and sometimes a significant role at different taxonomic levels in the Algae.
