Aphanothece saxicola es una cianobacteria unicelular del orden Chroococcales que forma agregados coloniales embebidos en gruesas vainas gelatinosas sobre sustratos rocosos en ambientes de agua dulce y terrestres. Sus colonias aparecen como costras delgadas, de color verdoso a parduzco, sobre rocas húmedas, orillas de arroyos y paredes rocosas. Contribuye a la formación de biopelículas y puede fijar nitrógeno atmosférico en determinadas condiciones.
