Lobosea is a group of Amoebozoa. An example is Arcellinida.[1]
Sensu strico, it can refer to Tubulinea. However, sensu lato, it can also refer more generally to a paraphyletic group of lobose Amoebozoa.[2] Formal classification of lobose amoebae remains speculative,[3] and the older, less specific terms remain in use. In very old textbooks, "Lobosea" is sometimes used to refer to all amoebae, including those clearly established as bikont.[citation needed] In either case, monophyly is not yet determined, but the terminology is still used while the classification continues.[citation needed]
