Cryptomonas minor is a small freshwater cryptomonad alga with a compressed, bean-shaped cell body containing phycobilin-bearing plastids, found in lakes, ponds, and slow-moving water bodies.

Cryptomonas species are important members of freshwater phytoplankton communities and serve as prey for zooplankton.
