MeSH Heading: Euglenida
Tree Number(s): B01.268.250
Unique ID: D016822
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016822
Annotation: infection; coordinate IM with EUGLENOZOA INFECTIONS (IM); coordinate with specific protozoan terms (ANTIGENS, PROTOZOAN, etc) if pertinent
Scope Note: A phylum of unicellular flagellates of ancient eukaryotic lineage with unclear taxonomy. They lack a CELL WALL but are covered by a proteinaceous flexible coat, the pellicle, that allows the cell to change shape. Historically some authorities considered them to be an order of protozoa and others classed them as ALGAE (some members have CHLOROPLASTS and some don't).
Entry Term(s): Euglenids; Euglenophyta
