Cryptodifflugiidae is a family of arcellinid testate amoebae.[2]
Description
Members of this family are conopodous (with conical pseudopods) amoebae with the body in a clear, usually firm, vase-shaped test, and conical pseudopods for locomotion that extend separately from the opening of the test.[1]
Classification
The classification of the family, as of 2019:[2]
- Infraorder Phryganellina Bovee 1985
- Family Cryptodifflugiidae Penard 1890
- Cryptodifflugia Cash 1904 – 23 species[3]
- Meisterfeldia Bobrov 2016 – 6 species[4][5]
- Wailesella Deflandre 1928 – 1 species[6]
- Family Cryptodifflugiidae Penard 1890
The 2022 classification places Meisterfeldia and Wailesella as Arcellinida incertae sedis, leaving Cryptodifflugia as the sole member of the family.[7]
