Hemimastigophora is a group of single-celled eukaryotic organisms including the Spironematellidae, first identified in 1988,[1][2][3] and the Paramastigidae. Over the next 30 years, different authors proposed placing these organisms in various branches of the eukaryotes.[2][4] In 2018 Lax et al. reported the first genetic information for Spironemidae, and suggest that they are from an ancient lineage of eukaryotes which constitute a separate clade from all other eukaryotic kingdoms.[3][4] It may be related to the Telonemia.[5]
