About: Gymnophryidae

An Entity of Type: eukaryote, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Gymnophryidae is a small family of amoeboids that lack shells and produce thin, reticulose pseudopods. These contain microtubules and have a granular appearance, owing to the presence of extrusomes, but are distinct from the pseudopods of Foraminifera. They are included among the Cercozoa (along with Lecythium), but differ from other cercozoans in having mitochondria with flat cristae, rather than tubular cristae.

  • Gymnophryidae is a small family of amoeboids that lack shells and produce thin, reticulose pseudopods. These contain microtubules and have a granular appearance, owing to the presence of extrusomes, but are distinct from the pseudopods of Foraminifera. They are included among the Cercozoa (along with Lecythium), but differ from other cercozoans in having mitochondria with flat cristae, rather than tubular cristae. Gymnophrys cometa, found in freshwater and soil, is representative of the group. The cell body is under 10 μm in size, and has a pair of reduced flagella, which are smooth and insert parallel to one another. It may also produce motile zoospores and cysts. Gymnophrys and Borkovia are the only confirmed genera, but other naked amoebae such as may be close relatives. (en)
  • Gymnophryidae es un grupo pequeño de amoeboides que carecen de conchas y producen seudópodos finos, reticulopodios. Estos contienen microtúbulos y tienen un aspecto granular, debido a la presencia de extrusomas, pero son distintos de los seudópodos de Foraminifera. Se incluyen en Cercozoa, pero se diferencian de otros miembros de este grupo por tener mitocondrias con crestas planos, más bien que con crestas tubulares. Gymnophrys cometa, encontrado en agua dulce y suelo, es la especie representativa del grupo. El cuerpo de la célula tiene un tamaño de unas 10 μm 10, y presenta un par de flagelos reducidos, que son lisos y se insertan paralelamente uno al otro. Puede también producir zoosporas y quistes móviles. y son los únicos géneros confirmados, pero otras amebas desnudas con reticulopodios tales como pueden ser parientes cercanos. (es)
