Aconoidasida

Mature Plasmodium malariae schizont among red blood cells, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Belongs within: Sporozoa.

The Aconoidasida are a group of sporozoans lacking the conoid in at least the asexual stages of the life cycle; members of this group include species of significance to human such as malaria-causing Plasmodium and Theileria causing diseases in livestock. Within the clade, members of the Haemosporida possess ciliated microgametes and a motile zygote with a conoid whereas Piroplasmorida lack cilia and conoids at all stages of the life cycle (Adl et al. 2012).

Characters (from Adl et al. 2019): Apical complex lacking conoid in asexual motile stages; some diploid motile zygotes (ookinetes) with conoid; macrogametes and microgametes forming independently; heteroxenous.

Ceratium

Ceratium fusus, from Phyto'pedia.

Belongs within: Peridiniphycidae.
Contains: Ceratium horridum, Ceratium tripos.

Ceratium is a diverse genus of flagellates, including both freshwater and marine species, with three or four horns radiating from the theca.

Characters (from Steidinger & Williams 1970): Theca with 3–4 horns, 1 apical, 2 to 3 antapical, 1 sometimes rudimentary. Some species with spatula-like epitheca and no apical horn. Plate formula: 4', 5'', 5''' and 2''''. Chloroplasts present. Obvious thecate ventral area composed of 4 plates occupying at least 2/3rds of midbody's ventral surface.

Peridiniphycidae

Impagidinium dispertitum, from here.

Belongs within: Peridinea.
Contains: Blepharocysta, Areoligeraceae, Leptodinioideae, Goniodomaceae, Ceratocorys, Cribroperidinioideae, Ceratium, Gonyaulax, Peridiniales.

The Peridiniphycidae are a major group of dinoflagellates With a tabulation that accords with, or derives from, a pattern in which there are five or six latitudinal plate series, and which lack a sagittal suture (Adl et al. 2012).
