Figure 3. A in A revised taxonomy and phylogeny of opalinids (Stramenopiles: Opalinata) inferred from the analysis of complete nuclear ribosomal DNA genes

Figure 3. A* phylogenetic relationships of the SSU rDNA sequences of Opalinata by maximum likelihood (ML) method. The Salpingoeca infusorium AF100941 sequence was used as an outgroup. The number at the nodes represent* respectively* the bootstrap support as computed from 1000 replicates for ML and maximum parsimony methods* and the posterior probability values of the Bayesian analysis. Dashes (–) indicate a different tree topology. The tree is drawn to scale* with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. New sequences are noted in bold. B* phylogenetic relationships of the SSU rDNA sequences of Opalinata by Bayesian inference; only the subtree corresponding to Opalinata is presented* showing the differences in the branching pattern with respect to the trees obtained by ML and maximum parsimony methods. The numbers at the nodes represent posterior probability values; the probabilities for the nodes without numbers are given in Figure 3A.

However* the work by Hara (1934) is on the cell morphology and microtubular structures of Protoopalina axonucleata * and he did not mention any other species in his work.According to the statements by Nishi et al.

The name Protoopalina japonica is a nomen nudum because this species has never been described.

(1977) * but without specifying the author and publication year.We have been unable to obtain a copy of the paper by Evans et al. (1977) in order to search for a description or the reference to the original source.Therefore* we have not included this species in the list.If it were to be included* the correct species name would be Opalina lanceolata.bEarl (1973) proposed the suppression of 88 species/subspecies of Opalinida because he deemed them inadequately described:certain characteristics were absent from the original descriptions (such as the length of the falx)* and the descriptions were based on type specimens rather than on populations.
