原生动物亚界现在包括超过65，000个已命名的物种，其中一半以上是化石和化石。10，000是寄生虫。在现存物种中，这包括. apprx。250寄生和11，300自由生活的沙丁鱼（其中.apprx. 4600是有孔虫）; 1800寄生鞭毛虫和5100自由生活鞭毛虫; 5600寄生孢子虫（包括顶复孢子虫属、小孢子虫属、粘孢子虫属和Ascetospora）;和2500寄生和4700自由生活的纤毛虫。毫无疑问，还有数千人尚未命名。原生动物门的七个门被接受在这个分类中：肉鞭虫门，虫形门，顶复门、小孢子门、截孢门、粘孢子门[包含新的放线孢子纲，后者又包含放线菌亚纲下的放线菌目]和纤毛门。诊断这些和所有更高的分类群通过亚目，每个代表属命名。目前的计划是一个相当大的修订，该协会的1964年分类，这是在一个时间，也许48,000种。被命名。它已经有必要获得大量的新的分类学信息，其中大部分是通过电子显微镜。希望目前的分类法能包含一段时间内将要发生的大部分主要变化，并能被原生动物学家和非原生动物学家使用多年。
The subkingdom Protozoa now includes over 65,000 named species, of which over half are fossil and .apprx. 10,000 are parasitic. Among living species, this includes .apprx. 250 parasitic and 11,300 free-living sarcodines (of which .apprx. 4600 are foraminiferids); .apprx. 1800 parasitic and 5100 free-living flagellates; .apprx. 5600 parasitic Sporozoa (including Apicomplexa, Microspora, Myxospora, and Ascetospora); and .apprx. 2500 parasitic and 4700 free-living ciliates. There are undoubtedly thousands more still unnamed. Seven phyla of Protozoa are accepted in this classification: Sarcomastigophora, LABYRINTHOMORPHA phylum nov., Apicomplexa, Microspora, Ascetospora, Myxospora [containing the new class ACTINOSPOREA, which in turn contains the new order ACTINOMYXIDA under the subclass Actinomyxia] and Ciliophora. Diagnoses are given for these and for all higher taxa through suborders, and representative genera of each are named. The present scheme is a considerable revision of the Society''s 1964 classification, which was prepared at a time when perhaps 48,000 spp. had been named. It has been necessitated by the acquisition of a great deal of new taxonomic information, much of it through electron microscopy. It is hoped that the present classification incorporates most of the major changes that will be made for some time, and that it will be used for many years by both protozoologists and non-protozoologists.
