Bodonida is a proposed order of kinetoplastid flagellate excavates. It contains the genera Bodo and Rhynchomonas, relatives to the parasitic trypanosomes. This order also contains the colonial genus Cephalothamnium.
Taxonomy
[edit]Bodonida contains the following suborders and families:[1]
- Eubodonina Vickerman in Moreira et al., 2004 stat. n. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Bodonidae Bütschli, 1883 emend. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Neobodonina Vickerman in Moreira et al., 2004 stat. n. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Neobodonidae Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Rhynchomonadidae Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Parabodonina Vickerman in Moreira et al., 2004 stat. n. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Cryptobiidae Vickerman, 1976
- Parabodonidae Cavalier-Smith 2016
The order is probably paraphyletic[1] and some treatments raise the three suborders to orders.[2]
