Protistology
Protistology is a scientific discipline devoted to the study of protists, a highly diverse group of eukaryotic organisms. Its field of study overlaps with more traditional disciplines of phycology, mycology, and protozoology, just as protists, which, being a paraphyletic group embrace algae, some organisms regarded previously as primitive fungi, and protozoa ("animal" motile protists lacking chloroplasts).
Dedicated academic journals include:
- European Journal of Protistology (formerly Protistologica);[1]
- International Journal of Protistology (Acta Protozoologica);[2]
- Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology (formerly Journal of Protozoology);[3]
- Protist (formerly Archiv für Protistenkunde);[4]
- Protistology.[5]
