Eimeriorina

Eimeriorina is a suborder of phylum Apicomplexa.[1][2]

Eimeriorina
Scientific classification
(unranked): Diaphoretickes
Kingdom: Chromista
Subkingdom: Harosa
Infrakingdom: Alveolata
Phylum: Apicomplexa
Class: Conoidasida
Subclass: Coccidia
Order: Eucoccidiorida
Suborder: Eimeriorina
Families and genera

All species in this clade are homoxenous or facultatively homoxenous. Merogony, gamogony and oocyst formation all occur within the same host. The hosts may be vertebrates or invertebrates.

Erroneous identifications of species is a major problem in coccidian systematics and it is likely that some of the genera and species will be revised.

Taxonomy

There are 12 families, 2 subfamilies and 50 genera recognised in this suborder.

The genus Eimeria with ~1500 species is the largest genus in this suborder.

Notes

One genus is entirely entomoxenous (parasitic on insects) — Barrouxia.

The taxonomic status of Atoxoplasma remains unclear.

gollark: I wish you precisely 2798124.124 luck units.
gollark: Probably perception of coolness is partly grounded in social status (or something like that) of the thing, and harder to obtain (e.g. expensive) things have more of that.
gollark: Modded clients don't actually let you read the *messages*, so I'm sure they're technically able to make it work sensibly.
gollark: I personally think that if Discord do not want people seeing things, they shouldn't be sent to clients.
gollark: Can't modded clients also see the description?
