They are drawn from the apusomonads, cercomonads, cryptomonads, euglenids, heteroloboseids, stramenopiles, thaumatomonads, and groups of uncertain taxonomic affinities (Protista incertae sedis). Three new species, Ancyromonas impluvium nov. spec.,Kurnaimonas celeris nov. spec., Sinistermonas sinistrorsus nov. spec., one combination, Psammosa unguis nov. comb., and one unidentified species are described. The biogeography of the species seen in Gippsland Basin is discussed with reference to studies in other localities. It appears that many heterotrophic flagellates are cosmopolitan.}, doi = {10.4467/16890027AP.15.005.2192}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/acta-protozoologica/article/small-free-living-heterotrophic-flagellates-from-marine-sediments-of-gippsland-basin-south-eastern-australia} }
