"Skeletal amoebas": Amoebas that have a cytoskeleton (possibly polyphyletic, will examine other characters later) Goliathpseudopodia Irisiri Saganchaos Lithoamoeba Membranae Infinitus Colony Cell Skarlix (Beta) Protoviramoeba endocyton (Beta) "Carpo-like" Carpotesta Pellícere Carpotesta Fúgere (Chloroplasts are likely endosymbiotic viridisaganians) Swamp Beans? Their hunting strategy bears striking resemblance to primitive carpotan bait proteins, and could represent an alternative course of evolution "Non-skeletal amoebas": Amoebas described a lacking a cytoskeleton Sceletus Praetereo "Squishy sessile consumers": Penitoflora Coli Microplaque "Chitinous consumers" Binucleusdetritivorus Morsus Turpis Salmundus "Sessile Photosynthesizers" Siliconium (beta): Likely outgroup "Soft leaf guys": Unwalled photosynthesizers Tankargus Sunfeeder "Chlorolaiseia": Chitin-walled photosynthesizers Binucleusphotoedo Solumcrusta "Paraphysiophyta": Cellulose-walled photosynthesizers Flash Cell Microdendron Crescofons Orgapertraho Brown Basilliphyta "Kont-havers": Flagellates "Dikonts": Motile heterotrophs propelled by 2 or more posterior flagellae Trisphourus Teproutine Plent Fever Viridimancerxia (modified): Photosynthetic dikonts Protomancerxia Binarflagella Cryosagania Luminuseven Chlorocytus Flovar? (fin might be fused flagellae, but that would be a LOT of flagellae) Crocusism (though it resembles a krakocian, its flagellae are actually used in locomotion; it likely evolved radial symmetry) "Slurping things": Well-defined anterior probosci or similar, usually 3 flagellae but sometimes 2 Sudisflutans Yanimalius Probisucker Cnidolium Simplistica Megaorthoceros Segnoneustes Padler (could be closely related to megaorthoceros but lost the proboscis) "Feeding threads": Organisms with thread-like structures involved in feeding, sometimes called flagellae but probably not flagellae Protokrakocia Pentapseudoflagellis Sting Cell Beadline Nimbus: Though photosynthetic, its fronds seem directly involved in said photosynthesis (thus making them feeding structures) and don't resemble the flagellae of viridisaganians. Also, UV light photosynthesis with a pigment invisible to the naked eye implies a novel development. "Ciliates": Ciliates Ciliognathus Scalong Flovar? (has viridisaganian-like characteristics, but the fin could be fused cilia, like similar structures irl) "Purple": Purple photosynthesizers Hexapodia Photosagnia (Beta) Algaaquila? (If the underlying pigment is purple, we have more freedom when explaining how they're black) Sulfur lovers: Protohydroia Octherma Placoball Hydrothermus Methane Lovers: Swamp Fibres Methanophagus Unknown affiliation: Organisms with no obvious characteristics connecting them to other groups Protosammea Massa Swamp Fibres Ferrumcarcer Radiodurans Maximae Silex Praevius Micro Fort: Explicitly developed metal ion chemosynthesis independently of ferrumcarcer Lituswush (Beta): Could be related to ferrumcarcer due to use of metal ion chemosynthesis, but other characters are Really novel Methanosagania (Beta): Characters make it very novel
