Domain: Eukaryota
Kingdom: Fungi
Phylum: Rozellomycota
Class: Microsporidea
Order: Glugeida
Family: Glugeidae
Genus: Glugea

Glugeais a genus ofmicrosporidianparasites, predominantly infecting fish.[1] Infections ofGlugeacausexenomaformation.[1]

Currently,Phylogenetic treeof this genus seem unreliable, as not enough evidence is present,[1]therefore species with their common hosts are given in a list:


Spraguea lophiihas formerly been described asG. americanus.[1]

Microgemma caulleryithat infects thegreater sand eelwas previously classified asG. caulleryi.[6]
