A review of current testate rhizopod (thecamoebian) research
Thecamoebians are a diverse group of testate rhizopods present in a variety of lacustrine and terrestrial habitats. Among this group certain agglutinating forms, primarily arcellacea, have tests that are highly resistant to decay and thus fossilize well. Although the Canadian fossil record of thecam...
