• Evidence from the resurrected family Polyrhabdinidae Kamm, 1922 (Apicomplexa: Gregarinomorpha) supports the epimerite, an attachment organelle, as a major eugregarine innovation.

  Sept. 16, 202112,926 words Article 1340LBackground Gregarines are a major group of apicomplexan parasites of invertebrates. The gregarine classification is largely incomplete because it relies primarily on light microscopy, while electron microscopy and...

• Description of Colponema vietnamica sp.n. and acavomonas peruviana n. gen. n. sp., two new alveolate phyla (Colponemidia nom. nov. and acavomonidia nom. nov.) and their contributions to reconstructing the ancestral state of alveolates and eukaryotes
