Current and future perspectives on the systematics, taxonomy and nomenclature of testate amoebae
Testate amoebae are a polyphyletic assemblage of at least three major, unrelated
taxonomic groups of unicellular amoeboid eukaryotes exhibiting a test. The focus on testate …

Phylogenomics and morphological reconstruction of Arcellinida testate amoebae highlight diversity of microbial eukaryotes in the Neoproterozoic
Life was microbial for the majority of Earth's history, but as very few microbial lineages leave
a fossil record, the Precambrian evolution of life remains shrouded in mystery. Shelled …
