    • FiloseFilose – Testate amoebae with filose (filamentous) pseudopodia.
    • Microgromia-haeckeliana-oo-7Granofilose – Testate amoeboids with granular filose pseudopodia. Granules are evenly distributed and move slowly or not at all. Shell and pseudopodia appressed to the substratum.
    • LacogromiaGranuloreticulose – Testate amoeboid organisms with branched filopodia over which numerous grains move extremely quickly in both directions and which can form an extensive network (reticulum).

    • RhizamoebaLobose – Naked amoebae with finger-shaped, tubular pseudopodia. Some species have subpseudopodia, small extensions of a hyaline anterior zone.
    • LeptomyxaFilose – Naked amoeboid organisms with filamentous pseudopodia.
    • LimnofilaGranofilose – Naked amoeboid organisms with granular filose pseudopodia. Granules are evenly distributed and move slowly or not at all. Pseudopodia usually appressed to the substratum.
