Palaeos Eukarya: Rhizaria: Xenophyophorea |
 | | The Xenophyophorea, like many Eukarya, have gone by a variety of names: Arxenophyria, Domatocoela, Psamminidea, Psammininae, Xenophiophorae, Xenophyophora, Xenophyophoria, Xenophyophorida, and Xenophyophoridae. |
 | | No attempt has been made to reconstruct the phylogeny of Xenophyophorea, and each of the constituent families (which are essentially form-taxa) may or may not be monophyletic. |
 | | In doing so, I am assuming that Haeckel mistook parts of a multinuclear plasmodium for separate cells, perhaps as a result of preparation effects of the acid. |
