Rediscovery of the Testate Amoeba Genus Penardeugenia (Thaumatomonadida, Imbricatea).
TL;DR: Molecular analyses revealed the evolutionary origin of Penardeugenia in the scale-bearing flagellate class Thaumatomonadida, which is backed up by morphological similarities of their scales.

Fine Structure of the Shell Wall in the Soil Testate Amoeba Cyclopyxis kahli (Rhizopoda)1
TL;DR: The common soil testate amoeba, Cyclopyxis kahli, is capable of building a complete organic shell when grown in culture in the absence of agglutinate material and chemical analysis of organic shells suggests that the main inorganic elements present are calcium and iron.

The effects of indoleacetic acid and kinetin on the growth of some microorganisms.
TL;DR: The observed increase or decrease in the time between mitosis and daughter-cell growth of yeast may be ascribed to an action by kinetin on a growth regulating system which is duplicated at this stage of the cell cycle.

Some observations of feeding behavior, growth, and test particle morphology of a silica-secreting testate amoeba Netzelia tuberculata (Wallich) (Rhizopoda, Testacea) grown in laboratory culture
TL;DR: Results give further evidence of the ecophenotypic variation in test particle morphology of Netzelia tuberculata, in this case induced by variations in kind of food, and suggest that additional research is warranted on the cellular processes that determine the morphology of biomineralized products in these testate amoebae.

Heterogeneity in the genus Allovahlkampfia and the description of the new genus Parafumarolamoeba (Vahlkampfiidae; Heterolobosea)
TL;DR: Seven strains of amoebae isolated from soil samples taken in Tibet, Sardinia and the Netherlands, all resembling to belong to a similar heterolobosean morphospecies, revealed a high heterogeneity in the genus Allovahlkampfia, which was described as a new genus Parafumarolamoeba.
