The Sphaeropleaceae consists of solitary cells or filaments of cells. They are coenocytic, and reproduce asexually via zoospores or sexually via anisogamy or oogamy.[2]
The family has had a convoluted taxonomic history. Depending on the author, it has been placed in one of many orders including Ulotrichales or Chaetophorales.[3] Currently, it is placed in its own order, the Sphaeropleales. It appears to be the sister group to the rest of the families in its order.[2] It also differs from the other families in the ultrastructure of the basal bodies of their flagella.[2]
