Podiata
Sign in to savePodiates (Cavalier-Smith, 2012, excl. Ancyromonadida) are a proposed clade containing the Amorphea (incl. Opisthokonta, Amoebozoa, apusomonads and breviates) and the organisms now assigned to the clade CRuMs. Ancyromonadida does not appear to have emerged in this grouping. Podiates possess pseudopodia (ancestrally filose and used for benthic feeding), while the closely related ancyromonads and malawimonads do not.
