Malawimonads are a small group of microorganisms with a basal position in the evolutionary tree of eukaryotes, containing only three recognized species. They are considered part of a paraphyletic grou

…lineage. On the basis of phylogenomic analyses, the group was shown to contain three widely separated eukaryote groups, the discobids, metamonads, and malawimonads. A current view of the composition of the excavates is given below, indicating that the group is paraphyletic. Except for some Euglenozoa, all are…
