Ulvellaceae consists of macroscopic and macroscopic algae that are usually attached to a substrate, occasionally free-living. They form branched filaments or pseudoparenchymatous masses. Cells contain a single [nucleus](/source/cell_nucleus) and a single parietal [chloroplast](/source/chloroplast) with one to several [pyrenoid](/source/pyrenoid)s. Both asexual and sexual reproduction have been observed in representatives of Ulvellaceae.<ref name=Skaloud>{{cite book | last1 = Škaloud | first1 = Pavel | last2 = Rindi | first2 = Fabio | last3 = Boedeker | first3 = Christian | last4 = Leliaert | first4 = Frederik | title = Chlorophyta: Ulvophyceae | series = Süßwasserflora von Mitteleuropa | volume = 13 | publisher = Springer Spektrum | location = Berlin, Germany | year = 2018 | isbn = 978-3-662-55494-4 | doi = 10.1007/978-3-662-55495-1 | url = https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-662-55495-1 | pages=i-x, 1–289 }}</ref>
