A highly artificial group consisting of genera in which no flagella have been described but which move by means of pseudopodia. The temporary nature of the group is indicated by the fact that as soon as a flagellum is observed in any member of the sub-division, that species becomes one of the Euchrysomonadina. It is retained in the classification merely for convenience in holding pseudopodia- bearing forms with yellow chromatophores and no flagella. The genera Rhizochrysis, Chrysidiastrum and Chrysostephanosphaera are naked, while Stylococcus and Lagynion are test-dwelling with long, thread-like, often single, pseudopodia. Sub-order 3. Chrysocapsina, Pascher. While Palmella stages are characteristic of all the Chrysomonadida in this group they become the prevailing stage and flagellated forms are transitory.
