Proleptomonas
Monadofilosa is a grouping of Cercozoa. (It is sometimes considered one of three, the other two being Phytomyxa and Reticulofilosa.) These organisms are single-celled amoeboid protists. Classification Monadofilosa includes the testaceans, which are testate filose amoeboids, and the cercomonads. It is sometimes described as Testaceafilosia and Sarcomonadea. It has also been described as Sarcomonadea (''Cercomonas, Heteromita, Bodomorpha, Proleptomonas, Allantion''), Thecofilosea (''Cryptodifflugia, Cryothecomonas''), Spongomonadea (''Spongomonas, Rhipidodendron''), and Imbricatea ('' Thaumatomonas, Thaumatomastix, Allas, Gyromitus, Euglypha, Trinema, Paulinella''). * The testaceans live both in marine and freshwater habitats, and in mosses. Members include ''Lecythium'', ''Pseudodifflugia'', ''Euglypha'' (a euglyphid), and ''Paulinella chromatophora''. * Cercomonads are flagellates that glide on their posterior cilium and/or generate filopodia.

Cercozoa
Cercozoa is a phylum of diverse single-celled eukaryotes. They lack shared morphological characteristics at the microscopic level, and are instead defined by molecular phylogenies of rRNA and actin or polyubiquitin. They were the first major eukaryotic group to be recognized mainly through molecular phylogenies. They are the natural predators of many species of microbacteria and Archea. They are closely related to the phylum Retaria, comprising amoeboids that usually have complex shells, and together form a supergroup called Rhizaria. Characteristics The group includes most amoeboids and flagellates that feed by means of filose pseudopods. These may be restricted to part of the cell surface, but there is never a true cytostome or mouth as found in many other protozoa. They show a variety of forms and have proven difficult to define in terms of structural characteristics, although their unity is strongly supported by phylogenetic studies. Diversity Some cercozoans are ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Thaumatomastix
''Thaumatomastix'' is a protist genus of the order ''Thaumatomonadida'', within the phylum Cercozoa and the class Imbricatea. Its species are aquatic, feeding on algae and appearing in waters of a wide range of temperatures and salinities, and are 15-50 micrometers long. They can interchange between flagellated and amoeboid forms, and are notable for being covered in both spiny and flattened siliceous scales. Etymology The genus was named by Robert Lauterborn in 1899. '' Thauma'' in Greek can mean ‘miracle,’ ‘wonder,’ or ‘marvel,’ while '' mastix'' is a suffix (also Greek-derived) that can be used to mean ‘scourge’ or ‘whip,’ which may refer to the organism’s flagella. History of knowledge The genus was first identified in 1899 by Robert Lauterborn, a German protozoologist. Since then several new species have been discovered within the genus. However, analyses of ribosomal DNA have indicated that Thaumatomastix may in fact be a paraphyletic group, and ha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Imbricatea is a class of Rhizaria characterised by silica scales. It is sometimes described as "Imbricatea/Silicofilosea", due to the similarity of those two groupings.
