Vahlkampfiidae

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The division of living beings into systematics is a continuous subject of research. Different systematic classifications exist side by side and one after the other. The taxon treated here has become obsolete due to new research or is not part of the group systematics presented in the German-language Wikipedia.

Naegleria fowleri

The Vahlkampfiidae were a taxon of protists and the largest group of the Heterolobosea .

features

Vahlkampfiidae have up to modes of Vahlkampfia always flagellated stages, but do not form fruiting bodies. The amoeboid stages that are always present (except for members of the genus Percolomonas ) are usually mononuclear and cylindrical in shape. The nuclear corpuscles remain intact during mitosis , but form two poles, the spindle is intranuclear. Cysts are common.

Systematics

The Vahlkampfiidae was the most extensive of the three groups of the Heterolobosea. In addition to some monotypical genera, it also contained the genera Naegleria (~ 50 partially pathogenic species), Tetramitus (~ 15) and Vahlkampfia (~ 5).

Later classifications with their sister taxa, the Acrasidae and the Gruberellidae , combined to form the group of Tetramitia .
