Natomonadida

Order of flagellates From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Natomonadida is an order of euglenids, free-living flagellates. It contains a group of osmotrophs, the Aphagea, which have lost the ability to ingest food, as well as one genus of phagotrophs, Neometanema. Members of this order move primarily by swimming freely, although some species of aphageans perform a gliding motility.[1][2]
