Remanella

Remanella is a genus of karyorelict ciliates, belonging to family Loxodidae.[1][2] Whereas Remanella inhabits brackish and marine waters, Loxodes – the other loxodid genus – is a freshwater taxon.[3]

This article is about the genus of ciliates. For the genus of frogs, see Ramanella.

Etymology

The genus name is a patronym honoring the German zoologist Adolf Remane (1898–1976), who contributed to the discovery of the marine interstitial fauna.[1]

Phylogeny

Molecular phylogeny based on sequences of the SSU rRNA gene suggests that the genus Remanella might be paraphyletic with respect to a monophyletic genus Loxodes but this result is not strongly supported.[4]

gollark: It's not that Untyped LC is bad for projects because it's slow.
