# Talk:Myxogastria

Should this page link to the ground breaking black-and-white film from Wardour Films Ltd. / British Instructional Film?

The article states:

Although they are monocellular, they can reach immense widths and weights: in extreme cases they can be up to 1 metre across and weigh up to 20 kilograms (44 lb)

This seems to suggest that there are cells that weigh 20 kg and measure 1 metre in diameter.  Is this true or does the introduction in fact need to be reworded?

Agree.  How big are the individuals?  Are they distinguishable in the mass? 74.127.201.155 (talk) 09:07, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Is there a reason for why the nomenclature of the Myxogastria (or should I say Myxomycetes), including many of its subtaxa, on Wikipedia does not follow the nomenclature apparently used in the literature and that used by Index Fungorum? 27.96.217.212 (talk) 10:37, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

"The sclerotium is a hardened, resistant form composed of numerous "macrocysts", which enable the myxogastria to survive in adverse conditions, for example during winter or dry periods, in this phase."
The use of the term "macrocyst" here might be incorrect, since it is usually/only applied to an aggregate of Dictyostelid cells, which are a separate group of slime molds. ZFT (talk) 03:27, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
