Ourococcus is a genus of green algae, in the family Coccomyxaceae. (As of February 2022), although AlgaeBase states that the genus is "accepted taxonomically", the type species Ourococcus bicaudatus is said to be a synonym of Keratococcus bicaudatus, and no species of the genus are listed as accepted.[1]
