Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Vampyrellid amoebae are predatory protists, which consume a variety of eukaryotic prey and inhabit freshwater, marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Although they have been known for almost 150 years, much of their diversity lacks an in‐depth characterization. To date, environmental sequencing data hint at several uncharacterized lineages, to which no phenotype is associated. Furthermore, there are numerous historically described species without any molecular information. This study reports on two new vampyrellid strains from moorlands, which extract the protoplasts of Closterium species (Zygnematophyceae). Our data on morphology, prey range specificity and feeding strategy reveal that the studied vampyrellids are very similar to the historically described Vampyrella closterii. However, phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that the two strains do not belong to the genus Vampyrella and, instead, form a distinct clade in the family Leptophryidae. Hence, we introduce a new genus of algivorous protoplast extractors, Pseudovampyrella gen. nov., with the species P. closterii (= V. closterii) and P. minor. Our findings indicate that the genetic diversity of morphologically described vampyrellid species might be hugely underrated.
