Protosteliales

Protosteliomycetes/Protosteliales (ICBN) or Protostelea/Protostelia/Protosteliida[1] (ICZN) is a grouping of slime molds from the phylum Mycetozoa.[2][3] The name can vary depending upon the taxon used. Other names include Protostelea,[4] Protostelia,[5] and Protostelida.[6] When not implying a specific level of classification, the term "protostelid" or "protosteloid amoeba" is sometimes used.[7]

Classification

It includes for example the following genera:

As a subclass, Protostelia has been described as paraphyletic to the protostelid clade, as Protostelia excludes the clade of myxomycetes, which are embedded in the protostelid clade.[8]
