Iningainema G.B. McGregor & B.C. Sendall (2017: 17)

Type: I. pulvinus G.B. McGregor & B.C. Sendall (2017: 17)

Filaments densely arranged, radiating from the centre of irregularly spherical to discoid, blue-green to olive-green colonies. Filaments isopolar, uniseriate, cylindrical, straight or flexuous, main filament generally wider than the lateral filaments which gradually taper to a bluntly conical end; with single or geminate false-branching. Sheath firm, lamellated, uncoloured to yellowish or yellow-brown, closed at the apex. Vegetative cells isodiametric to shorter than broad, slightly constricted at the cross walls. Heterocytes basal and intercalary, solitary, spherical to compressed-ovoid. Akinetes absent. A monospecific genus, with one species known from a Great Artesian Basin spring complex in north-eastern Australia.
