Squamamoeba japonica – from Kudryavtsev and Pawlowski (2013)
Cutosea Cavalier-Smith et al., 2016
Diagnosis: Amoebae bounded by a continuous thin, somewhat flexible, envelope separated from the plasma membrane and having oval scale-like substructure within a denser matrix; small pores penetrate the envelope, allowing subpseudopodia to protrude for very slow, occasional locomotion; locomotive cells flattened, oval, rounded or irregularly triangular.
