Perkinsidsaresingle-celledprotiststhat live asintracellular parasitesof a variety of other organisms. They are classified as theclassPerkinseawithin the monotypicphylumPerkinsozoa.It is part of theeukaryotic supergroupAlveolata,along withdinoflagellates,their closest relatives, and another parasitic group known asApicomplexa.Perkinsids are found in aquatic environments, as parasites of dinoflagellates and various animals.

Description

[edit]

All known Perkinsozoa areintracellular parasitesof a range of organisms, particularly microalgae and animals.[3]Species ofParviluciferaceae,PararosariidaeandMaranthosare parasites ofdinoflagellates.[4][5]Rastrimonasparasitizecryptophytealgae.[5]Xcellidae,PerkinsidaeandAcrocoelusare parasites of various animals:fish,[6]bivalve molluscs[7]andacorn worms,respectively.[8]Perkinsozoa are found in aquatic environments, both marine[2]and freshwater.[9]

Systematics

[edit]

Taxonomic history

[edit]

Perkinsids were first described by Norman D. Levine in 1978, as the classPerkinseawithinAlveolata.Levine only included onegenus,Perkinsus,described in the same publication.[1]Later, the same author treated this group as classPerkinsasidawithin the phylumApicomplexa,suggesting thatPerkinsusis the most primitive apicomplexan.[10]However, this placement was controversial, and was later disproven byphylogenetic analysesthat proved more evolutionary proximity todinoflagellatesthan to apicomplexans.[11]

In 1999, with the discovery ofParvilucifera,biologists Fredrik Norén andØjvind Moestrupseparated the class Perkinsea into a new phylumPerkinsozoa,within theAlveolata,to accommodate these two genera.[2]In 2002 a third genus was described,Cryptophagus(now renamedRastrimonas), but it was nevergenetically sequenced,which makes its phylogenetic position uncertain.[12]

In 2014 a new class was added to the phylum, known asSquirmidea.[13]However, phylogenetic analyses later demonstrated that squirmids are more closely related to the clade unitingApicomplexaandColpodellidathan to dinoflagellates and perkinsids, and its status as a class of Perkinsozoa was rejected, making Perkinsea the only remaining class.[14][15]

Phylogeny

Perkinsids are amonophyleticgroup (orclade) ofAlveolata,a large group of ecologically diverse protists such asdinoflagellates,ciliates,apicomplexansandchrompodellids,all characterized by the presence ofcortical alveolibelow theircell membrane.In particular, perkinsids are thesister groupof dinoflagellates, together forming a clade known asDinozoa.[16]Both groups, along with apicomplexans and their closest relatives, compose a clade known asMyzozoa.[14][15]

Classification

[edit]

As of 2023, the order-level classification of perkinsids remains ambiguous, and orders are very sparsely used. The familiesPararosariidaeandParviluciferaceaehave no assigned parent order,[4][5]although one author,Thomas Cavalier-Smith,previously placedParviluciferawithin the orderRastrimonadida,along withRastrimonas.[17]This has not been supported by any other author, and both Rastrimonadida andRastrimonasare omitted from current classifications for lacking molecular data.[12]Similarly, the genusAcrocoelus,assigned directly to the orderAcrocoelidawithout a family,[17]is also excluded due to the absence of molecular data.[18]The genusMaranthos,althoughgenetically sequenced,is not assigned to any family or order.[19]The remaining groups,PerkinsidaeandXcellidae,are only sometimes assigned to order Perkinsida,[20][21]while in other instances their parent taxon is directly Perkinsea.[6][22]Taxonomic ranks (i.e. families, orders, classes...) are mostly omitted in favour of using onlyclades.[18]Shown below is the commonly accepted scheme, omitting order-level taxa:

Simplified cladogram of Perkinsea based on 2021-2023 phylogenetic analyses.[19][5][20]Environmental DNAclades are omitted, with the exception of clade 'NAG01' which groups possible infectious agents of tadpoles.[5]

As mentioned above, two genera have uncertain placement because they have never been genetically sequenced, but they have been assigned to Perkinsea on the basis of theirmorphology:[13]
