Paracercomonadidae
Family of protists
The paracercomonads are a group of cercozoan protists . Taxonomically, they comprise the family Paracercomonadidae , order Paracercomonadida and subclass Paracercomonadia . Due to their morphological similarities to the cercomonads , members of this family were grouped with Cercomonas and similar taxa from the beginning. However, their similarities are due to convergent evolution .
Classification
There are currently 5 genera of paracercomonads:
