Descriptive info Algonkian; Kwagunt valley, Arizona, U.S.A. (Index Nominum Genericorum) [details]
Taxonomic remark Described as a shell, but later considered an acritarch, see T.D. Ford & W.J. Breed, 1973, or as probably belonging to the Nostocales, see W. Sun. 1987. (Index Nominum Genericorum); considered the type of an algal class incertae sedis (Chuariophyceae) by Hoffmann, 1994, followed presently in IRMNG. According to Xaio & Dong, 2006 and other authors, Tawuia Hoffman and Chuaria probably represent different portions of the same plant, although Hoffman classifies them in different families based on their morphology. In these authors' view, Tawuia represents a benthic, tubular macroalga, with Chuaria as a possible planktonic, spherical cyst phase of the same organism. [details]
