Chroococcus rufescens é uma cianobactéria unicelular da família Chroococcaceae, caracterizada pela coloração avermelhada-acastanhada da bainha mucilaginosa que envolve as células. Habita principalmente solos úmidos, superfícies rochosas e ambientes aquáticos de água doce. Como pioneira em habitats adversos, contribui para a formação e estabilização do solo. Possui adaptações para tolerar dessecação e alta irradiação solar. A pigmentação avermelhada protege contra a radiação UV excessiva.
