The following groups contain protists. The clade [[Opisthokonta]] also contains the animals and the fungi, and the kingdom [[Archaeplastida]] also contains algae and plants.
The following groups contain protists. The clade [[Opisthokonta]] also contains the animals and the fungi, and the kingdom [[Archaeplastida]] also contains algae and plants.


Since not all taxa are [[monophyletic]], those which are [[paraphyletic]] are written between brackets.

=Kingdom "Protozoa" {{small|Godfuss 1817}}=

The "[[Protozoa]]" are a [[paraphyletic]] assemblage of several groups of heterotrophic microorganisms. They are divided into two main groups: "[[Sarcomastigota]]", which contains the protist phyla more closely related to [[fungi]] and [[animals]] ([[Amoebozoa]], "[[Choanozoa]]", [[Microsporidia]], "[[Sulcozoa]]"); and "[[Eozoa]]", which contains the [[excavates]] ([[Euglenozoa]], [[Percolozoa]], "[[Loukozoa]]", [[Metamonada]]).<ref name="Higher">{{cite journal|doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0119248|journal=PLOS ONE|date=2015|title=A Higher Level Classification of All Living

The current classification of [[Amoebozoa]] isn't entirely phylogenetic at the high-level taxa: subphylum "[[Lobosa]]" is a paraphyletic group ("[[Glycopoda]]" and [[Cutosa]]) as opposed to the monophyletic subphylum [[Conosa]], and inside "[[Lobosa]]" itself the superclass "[[Glycopoda]]" is also a paraphyletic grouping ([[Discosea]] and [[Tubulinea]]) as opposed to the monophyletic superclass [[Cutosa]].
*** Class [[Archamoeba]]
Phylogenetic trees show that [[Discosea]] is sister to [[Tevosa]] ([[Tubulinea]] + [[Evosea]]), and [[Tubulinea]] is sister to [[Evosea]] ([[Cutosa]] + [[Conosa]])<ref name="BetweenPod"/> as shown below:

A protist (/ˈprtɪst/) is any eukaryotic organism (one with cells containing a nucleus) that is not an animal, plant, or fungus. The protists do not form a natural group, or clade, since they exclude certain eukaryotes with whom they share a common ancestor;[a] but, like algae or invertebrates, the grouping is used for convenience. In some systems of biological classification, such as the popular five-kingdom scheme proposed by Robert Whittaker in 1969, the protists make up a kingdom called Protista, composed of "organisms which are unicellular or unicellular-colonial and which form no tissues".[1][2][b]

The following groups contain protists. The clade Opisthokonta also contains the animals and the fungi, and the kingdom Archaeplastida also contains algae and plants.

Since not all taxa are monophyletic, those which are paraphyletic are written between brackets.

Kingdom "Protozoa" Godfuss 1817

The "Protozoa" are a paraphyletic assemblage of several groups of heterotrophic microorganisms. They are divided into two main groups: "Sarcomastigota", which contains the protist phyla more closely related to fungi and animals (Amoebozoa, "Choanozoa", Microsporidia, "Sulcozoa"); and "Eozoa", which contains the excavates (Euglenozoa, Percolozoa, "Loukozoa", Metamonada).[3]

Phylum Amoebozoa Lühe 1913 em. Cavalier-Smith 1998

The current classification of Amoebozoa isn't entirely phylogenetic at the high-level taxa: subphylum "Lobosa" is a paraphyletic group ("Glycopoda" and Cutosa) as opposed to the monophyletic subphylum Conosa, and inside "Lobosa" itself the superclass "Glycopoda" is also a paraphyletic grouping (Discosea and Tubulinea) as opposed to the monophyletic superclass Cutosa. Phylogenetic trees show that Discosea is sister to Tevosa (Tubulinea + Evosea), and Tubulinea is sister to Evosea (Cutosa + Conosa)[4] as shown below:

Notes

  1. ^ The first eukaryotes were “neither plants, animals, nor fungi”, hence as defined, the Protista would include the earliest common ancestor of all eukaryotes.
  2. ^ In the original 4-kingdom model proposed in 1959, Protista included all unicellular microorganisms such as bacteria.
