Protozoan Class
Summary
Kingdom Protista   Single-celled eukaryotes  
🗑

🗑
Subphylum Mastigophora   One or more flagella for locomotion; autotropic, heteroropic, or saprozoic.  
🗑
Class Phytomastigophorea   Chloroplasts usually present; mainly autotrophic, some heterotrophic; Euglena, Volvox, Chlamydomonas  
🗑
Class Zoomastigophorea   lack chloroplasts; hertotrophic or saprozoic.Trypanosoma, trichonympha, trichomonas, giardia, leishmania  
🗑
SubphylumSarcodina   pseudopodia for movement and food gathering; naked or witrh shell or test; mostly free living
