The Paramyxida are a taxon of unicellular parasites that belong to the Cercozoa tribe .

features

The infectious cells are amoeba . They form daughter cells by division of the infectious cell, which remain within the mother cell. The Paramyxida are therefore viewed as multicellular. The cells can develop into multicellular spores .

The Paramyxida have a complicated process of nucleus and cell division.

Ultrastructurally, they are characterized by a reduced form of the centrioles with nine microtubules . These are associated with the microtubules of the spindle apparatus . The nuclear envelope tears during the nuclear division.

Way of life

The Paramyxida live parasitically in the digestive tract of marine invertebrates . They feed here osmotrophically .

Systematics

The Paramyxida are placed in the group of Ascetosporea, a group of parasitic unicellular organisms. There are three types of them:
