Talk:Rhizaria

message: Hello,
After much discussion, it has been agreed that colour changes for taxoboxes are necessary; it's currently proposed that amoebozoa taxoboxes should become #FFC8A0 and rhizaria, lavender.  These changes would be carried out automatically, determined by regnum/phylum/etc entries in the taxobox.  Your comments and opinions would be gratefully received 
here!
Thanks,

message: Very few protozoan, or protistid, classifications that I have been able to find online include or even recognize Rhizarea. This might be expected since Rhizaria is a rather new concept. In fact the only place I have found it, besides in Wikipedea articles is in  Tree of Life (TOL web)pages 
Assuming Rhizaria qualifies as a valid taxon, it essentially emends the Rhizopoda or Rhizopodea. It does not qualify as a kingdom or even as a phyllum, even though some classifications have gone to eleveling orders, e.g. Formaninfera, to phyla. Rhizarea as an ememded Rhzopoda best qualifies for the same rank, that of class. At most if need be it might be elevated to superclass. 
In the meantime it mght be better to stick with well established taxa found throughout the literature and leave Rhizarea for the time being to discussion related to new ideas and concepts.
JM  discussion
:Rhizaria is one of the eukaryote supergroups discovered by molecular phylogeny about ten years ago.  Although it does bear some resemblance to the traditional Rhizopoda or Rhizopodea, Rhizaria excludes the lobose amoeboid taxa, such as slime molds and Amoeba itself, which belong Amoebozoa.   The traditional [rhizopod]s seem to include several groups with distinct origins.
:Thomas Cavalier-Smith, who named Rhizaria, ranked it as an  infrakingdom.  But it's more common today for microbiologists to name the taxa without ranks, as in Adl et al. (see p. 401, for instance).

message: There's a page on Retaria, which denotes the clade including the Foraminifera and the Radiolaria. Is that worth noting here? It seems like it could also make sense to simply merge that page into this one, it's so small anyway. Daemon328 (talk) 06:29, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Rhizaria's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "pmid18952499":

From Reticulosida:

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 15:01, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
