Make sure you visit our Introduction page for a general view of what has been happening with the classification of this fascinating group of organisms. A lot has changed since this website went online 12 December 1995, and anyone interested in the plasmodiophorids and related groups in the Phytomyxea should keep abreast of the molecular studies and updated phylogenies. I apologize if I have missed any recent studies and have not included them on this website.

If you have enjoyed visiting this web site and(or) the Plasmodiophorid Home Page has been of use to you in your understanding of these organisms, please let me know. Comments or suggestions are always welcome. Good luck with your research on the plasmos.
