Eukaryotic microbial diversity is known to be extensive but remains largely undescribed and
uncharted. While much of this unknown diversity is composed of inconspicuous flagellates …

Abstract Testate (shell‐building) amoebae, such as the Arcellinida (Amoebozoa), are useful
bioindicators for climate change. Though past work has relied on morphological analyses to …

This study reveals extensive phenotypic convergence based on the non-monophyly of
genera and morphospecies of testate (shelled) amoebae. Using two independent markers …

Arcellinida testate amoebae (Amoebozoa: Arcellinida): model of organisms for assessing
microbial biogeography Page 121 7 Arcellinida testate amoebae (Amoebozoa: Arcellinida) …

Testate (shelled) amoebae are abundant and diverse in Sphagnum-rich areas of bogs and
fens. Test morphology is standardly used to identify morphospecies as tests have varying …

We have isolated several free-living amoeba strains from the environment in Ghana, which
have internal transcribed spacers, including the 5.8 S rDNA, sequences similar to …

Molecular data have considerably contributed to building the taxonomy of protists. Recently,
the systematics of Hyalospheniidae (Amoebozoa; Tubulinea; Arcellinida) has been widely …

We used Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 1 (COI) to assess the phylogenetic relationships and
taxonomy of Nebela sensu stricto and similar taxa (Nebela group, Arcellinida) in order to …

We report discovery of a new lineage of anaerobic marine amoebae and amoeboflagellates,
Anaeramoeba gen. nov., represented by six newly described species. The trophic form of …

Hyalospheniids are among the most common and conspicuous testate amoebae in high‐
latitude peatlands and forest humus. These testate amoebae were widely studied as …
