Refining Heterolobosean Taxonomy with 18S rDNA Divergence Analysis: Discovery of a Novel Genus from the Coast of Mombasa, Kenya

2025-12-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> The class Heterolobosea comprises a morphologically diverse and ecologically versatile assemblage of free-living microbial eukaryotes, yet species- and genus-level boundaries remain difficult to define due to limited diagnostic characters and extensive phenotypic plasticity. Here we apply a reproducible 18S rDNA divergence framework to evaluate taxonomic limits across the group and to...
