Taxonomic remark Ambiregnal family (botany+zoology), treated as zoological in IRMNG at this time. Wijayawardene et al., 2022 use this name, however it is not included in Adl et al., 2019, and Cavalier-Smith et al, 2016 place Copromyxa in Hartmannellidae, implying that the name Copromyxidae is not required.
