Raphidomonadea
Raphidomonadea is a class of Stramenopiles containing both photosynthetic and phagotrophic protists. The phagotrophic groups are known as Raphopoda, and comprise actinophryid heliozoa and the marine genus Commation. The photosynthetic groups are known as the raphidophyte algae. Their relationship was elucidated through phylogenetic analyses.
