This study describes a new predatory flagellate species, Glissandra oviformis, and uses phylogenomic analysis to place it within the CRuMs clade, contributing to understanding character evolution in this group.

The paper describes Meteora sporadica, a protist with unique morphology, and shows its close phylogenetic relationship to Hemimastigophora through genomic analysis.

The paper describes two new mantamonad species and provides transcriptomic and genomic data for one, offering insights into the CRuMs supergroup's evolutionary history.
