Check-list of microscopic protosteloid amoebae from the Southwest of Europe [PDF]
A biodiversity survey for protosteloid amoebae was carried out in Spain, Portugal and France between 2005 and 2010. Samples were collected from three different microhabitats – aerial litter, ground litter, and bark of living plants – in a total of 97 ...

First records of nivicolous myxomycetes (Amoebozoa) from Kazakhstan.
We present the first survey of nivicolous myxomycetes (plasmodial slime molds, Amoebozoa) conducted in Kazakhstan, specifically from the Ile-Alatau mountain range near Almaty. A total of 82 specimens were collected, and 16 species were identified using a

Checklist of Myxomycetes (Amoebozoa) of the Polish Tatra Mts
The Tatra Mts are the highest mountain range in the Carpathians and are an important biodiversity region for many organisms. Plants, animals, and fungi are better studied in this region, while myxomycetes still remain understudied.

Experimental approach on the contribution of wind and animal vectors in the dispersal and colonization of testate amoebae (Protista, Amoebozoa) in freshwater ecosystems [PDF]
: Aim We aimed to understand how testaceous amoebae spread in new sites, assessing their dispersal potential by wind and animals in freshwater ecosystems. Methods We conducted a field experiment over 33 days between July and August 2018.

Investigations into the Diversity and Distribution of tRNA and Phylogenetics of Translation Factors in Amoebozoa-Infecting <i>Nucleocytoviricota</i>. [PDF]
Translation is a sine qua non process for life as we know it. Translation factors (TFs) and tRNAs are rare among viruses but are commonly found in giant viruses of the class Megaviricetes.
