Katagnymene pelagic is a marine, nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium found in open ocean environments, particularly in tropical and subtropical waters. It forms bundled filament aggregates and contributes significantly to nitrogen input in oligotrophic marine ecosystems. Its conservation status is not evaluated.

Katagnymene spiralis is a marine, nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium that forms spiral or coiled filament bundles in tropical and subtropical open ocean environments. It contributes to marine nitrogen cycling through biological nitrogen fixation. Its conservation status is not evaluated.
