Typically found in various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments. Found in Norway. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.

Phacus hamelii is a unicellular, photosynthetic euglenoid alga with a flattened, asymmetric cell body containing chloroplasts and a distinctive posterior tail-like extension.
