Abstract Bulbochaete allahabadensis sp. nov. is described from a temporary pond at Allahabad. Most of its life-cycle stages have been observed. It differs from other known species of the genus Bulbochaete in having characteristic oospores and interesting behaviour of androspores. Andropores after liberation from normal vegetative cells may germinate anywhere and form dwarf males or produce several celled branched germlings with precocious formation of antheridia. Such zoospore-like behaviour of androspores confirms the observations made by other workers under culture conditions.
