Species Hartmannella cantabrigiensis Page, 1974

Introduction

Recent sequence analysis indicates that Hartmannella is not monophyletic (Brown et al 2011). The type strain of H. cantabrigiensis is closely related to Copromyxa protea, a tubulinean amoeba whose cysts occur in simple stalked aggregates — 'fruiting structures' — that lead Copromyxa to be treated as a cellular slime mouls (a grouping that itself is polyphyletic). Australian amoebae that fit this morphospecies have not been sequenced.
