Diagnosis: Extracellular capsule or lorica attached to substrate, with axopodia emerging from perforations; kinetocyst extrusomes along axopodia; tubular mitochondrial cristae; biciliated and amoeboid stages; can be colonial.
Polychaos spec. Polychaos spec. Diagnosis: Large amoeba with an irregular more or less polypodial shape during slow locomotion; uroid finely papillated, usually very large fasciculate
Genus Spiculophrys Zlatogursky, 2016 Diagnosis: Centrohelids lacking silica scales but with numerous thin, pointed organic (without any traces of silica) scales tapering towards acute apices. 18S
