Protozoa in the Deep Sea (Foraminifera, Xenophyophores, Gromids)

1 Protozoa in the Deep Sea (Foraminifera, Xenophyophores, Gromids) Studies of agglutinated protozoans have lagged behind others because: - the tests are so fragile, - early sampling methods did not recover organisms intact, - sorters failed to pay attention to small mud lumps.

Zooflagellate Phylogeny and the Systematics of Protozoa

The diversification of the protozoans is fundamentally important for understanding both the early evolution of eukaryotes as a whole and the origins of these higher kingdoms.
