Abstract

Phryganella acropodia Hertwig and Lesser, 1874, is one of the most common and abundant testate amoeba species. It represents the type species of the genus Phryganella Pcnard, 1902, which in turn is the type genus for the suborder Phryganellina (Arcellinida) Bovee, 1985, but despite its taxonomic importance it was not yet analyzed with molecular methods. We established two cultures of putative Phryganella acropodia, designed Phryganellina-specific primers, amplified SSU rDNA data and subjected these sequences to phylogenetic analyses. Morphological and genetic differences were found between both strains. With SSU rDNA phylogenetic analyses we confirm that Phryganella acropodia branches with Phryganella paradoxa Pcnard, 1902 and Cryptodifflugia Penard, 1890 in the Phryganellina. We thus give further evidence that pseudopodia morphology in the Arcellinida is a character of high taxonomic value, as suggested by Bovee and Jung when erecting the suborder Phryganellina. Moreover, we provide evidence for cryptic diversity and for the first time confirm the existence of a naked life stage in Arcellinida by molecular means. (C) 2020 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
