Lecudinidae is a family of parasitic protozoa of the phylum Apicomplexia.

Taxonomy

There are about 35 genera in this family.

History

The family was created by Kamm in 1922. It was raised to superfamily status by Levine in 1971.^[1]

Description

The gamont has a truncated anterior mucron.

The spherical to ovoid nucleus is located in anterior third of the body. It has a central nucleolus.

Syzygy is lateral and often involves multiple associations.

These organisms move by gliding.
