Characiella is a genus of green algae in the family Characiaceae, containing the single species Characiella rukwae.[1]

Characiella rukwae consists of colonies of cells embedded in a gelatinous matrix. Cells are ovoid in shape, with one nucleus at the base of the cell. There is one central, stellate chloroplast with a pyrenoid at the center.[1] The mode of reproduction is unknown,[1] although it is suspected to form zoospores with two flagella.[2]

Characiella rukwae has been recorded once from the plankton of Lake Rukwa in what is now Tanzania.[3] The genus is thus poorly known and requires modern reinvestigation.[1]
