The survey of communities of the macroscopic green filamentous and yellow-green siphon algae has been carried out in some regions of Russia. Their classification according to the Braun-Blanquet approach was offered. Communities were distinguished into a separate class Cladophoretea cl. nov. with the type order Cladophoretalia ord. nov. Two alliances, Cladophorion fractae all. nov (type of the order) and Vaucherio—Cladophorion glomeratae all. nov., refer to algae phytocoenoses of stagnant and running waters, respectively. The first alliance consists of the associations Cladophoretum glomeratae Sauer 1937 (type of the alliance), Cladophoretum fractae Sauer 1937, Nitello—Vaucherietum dichotomae (S. Pass. 1904) Krausch 1964, Aegagropiletum holsaticae (Jöns 1934) Sauer 1937, Сladophoretum koktschetavensis Sviridenko ass. nov. and Ulothricetum zonatae Sauer 1937. Whereas the second one includes the type association Vaucherio-Cladophoretum Weber-Oldecop ex ass. nov., also Cladophora rivularis, Vaucheria cf. geminata and Vaucheria terrestris communities and ass. Stigeoclonietum tenuis (Fjerdingstad 1964) Arendt 1982. For all the syntaxonomical units the description is given and the information on composition, structure, ecology and distribution of the mentioned phytocoenoses is brought.
