Examination of four selectedChroomonasspecies indicates significant structural diversity within the genus. The concept ofChroomonasis reviewed, and new observations are presented onC. collegionissp. nov. andC. coerulea(Geitler) Skuja. Examination of two other species,Chroomonas caudataGeitler andChroomonas daucoidesConrad et Kufferath, forms the basis for the description of two new genera,KommaandFalcomonas.The generic taxonomy is based on the nature of the furrow‐gullet system, periplast structure, and features of the plastidial complex. Certain nomenclatural treatments were required:Cyanomonas americana(Davis) Oltmanns is transferred toChroomonas, C. rosenbergiaeHuber‐Pestalozzi is relegated to synonymy withC. coerulea(Geitler) Skuja, and the descriptions of Butcher's speciesC. mesostigmaticasp. nov. andC. collegionissp. nov. are completed.
