Stereonema
Spironematellidae (previously known as Spironemidae) is a family of heterotrophic flagellates, in the group Hemimastigophora. They vary in size and shape from the ellipsoid '' Hemimastix amphikineta'' (14 × 7 μm) to the vermiform '' Spironematella terricola'' (43 × 3 μm), and are united by the possession of two rows of cilia, called kineties. Phylogenomic analysis shows that Hemimastigophora are a distinct and ancient lineage of eukaryotic organisms, forming a possible sister clade to the supergroup Diaphoretickes.

Hemimastix Amphikineta
Spironematellidae (previously known as Spironemidae) is a family (biology), family of heterotrophic flagellates, in the group Hemimastigophora. They vary in size and shape from the ellipsoid ''Hemimastix amphikineta'' (14 × 7 μm) to the vermiform ''Spironematella terricola'' (43 × 3 μm), and are united by the possession of two rows of Cilium, cilia, called kineties. Phylogenomic analysis shows that Hemimastigophora are a distinct and ancient lineage of Eukaryote, eukaryotic organisms, forming a possible sister clade to the supergroup Diaphoretickes.
