== Taxonomy == Three genera are [[heteroxenous|dixenous]] (two hosts in the life cycle) – ''[[Leishmania]]'', ''[[Phytomonas]]'' and ''[[Trypanosoma]]'', while The remainder are [[Monoxenous development|monoxenous]] (one host in the life cycle).{{citation needed|reason=Unsourced statements|date=April 2025}} ''[[Paratrypanosoma]]'' appears to be the first evolving branch in this order. Fifteen genera are recognised in the ''Trypanosomatidae'' and there are three subfamilies – ''[[Blechomonadinae]]'', ''[[Leishmaniinae]]'' and ''[[Strigomonadinae]]''.{{clarification needed|reason=Contradicts list which has six subfamilie with many more genera|date=April 2025}} The genera in the subfamily ''[[Strigomonadinae]]'' are characterised by the presence of obligatory intracellular bacteria of the [[Kinetoplastibacterium]] genus.<ref name="pmid23345457"/> * Family '''Trypanosomatidae''' <small>Calkins 1926</small> [Trypanomorphidae <small>Woodcock 1906</small>; Trypanosomataceae <small>Senn 1911</small>] ** Genus ''[[Agamomonas]]'' <small>Grassé 1952</small> ** Genus ''[[Batracoleishmania]]'' <small>Dasgupta 2011</small> ** Genus ''[[Blastocrithidia]]'' <small>Laird 1959</small> ** Genus ''[[Cercoplasma]]'' <small>Roubaud 1911</small> ** Genus ''[[Cystotrypanosoma]]'' <small>Roubaud 1911</small> ** Genus ''[[Jaenimonas]]'' <small>Votypka & Hamilton 2015</small> ** Genus ''[[Lamellasoma]]'' <small>Davis 1947</small> ** Genus ''[[Leptowallaceina]]'' <small>Podlipaev & Frolov 2000</small> ** Genus ''[[Lewisonella]]'' <small>Chalmers 1918 nomen dubium</small> ** Genus ''[[Malacozoomonas]]'' <small>Nicoli, Penaud & Timon-David 1972</small> ** Genus ''[[Nematodomonas]]'' <small>Nicoli, Penaud & Timon-David 1972</small> ** Genus †''[[Paleoleishmania]]'' <small>Poinar & Poinar, 2004</small> ** Genus †''[[Paleotrypanosoma]]'' <small>Poinar 2008</small> ** Genus ''[[Paramecioides]]'' <small>Grassé 1882</small> ** Genus ''[[Sauroleishmania]]'' <small>Ranque 1973</small> ** Genus ''[[Sergeia]]'' <small>Svobodová et al. 2007 non Stimpson 1860 non Nasonov 1923 non Sergio Manning & Lemaitre 1994</small> ** Genus ''[[Trypanomonas]]'' <small>Danilewsky 1885</small> ** Genus ''[[Trypanomorpha]]'' <small>Woodcock 1906</small> ** Genus ''[[Undulina]]'' <small>Lankester 187</small> ** Genus ''[[Wallaceina]]'' <small>Bulat, Mokrousov & Podlipaev 1999</small> [''[[Proteomonas]]'' <small>Podlipaev, Frolov & Kolesnikov 1990 non Hill & Wetherbee 1986</small>] ** Genus ''[[Wallacemonas]]'' <small>Kostygov & Yurchenko 2014</small> ** '''Subfamily [[Paratrypanosomatinae]]''' <small>Votýpka & Lukeš 2013</small> *** Genus ''[[Paratrypanosoma]]'' <small>Votypka & Lukes 2013</small> ** '''Subfamily [[Trypanosomatinae]]''' [[File:Trypanosoma (248 09) Trypanosoma equiperdum.jpg|thumb|right|''[[Trypanosoma equiperdum]]'']] ::* Genus ''[[Trypanosoma]]'' <small>Gruby 1843</small> :* '''Subfamily [[Blechomonadinae]]''' <small>Votypka & Suková 2013</small> ::* Genus ''[[Blechomonas]]'' <small>Votypka & Suková 2013</small> [[File:Leishmania donovani 01.png|thumb|right|''[[Leishmania donovani]]'']] :* '''Subfamily [[Leishmaniinae]]''' <small>sensu Maslov & Lukeš 2012</small> ::* '''Clade [[Crithidiatae]]''' <small>Maslov & Lukeš 2012</small> [[File:CRITHIDIA 2.jpg|thumb|right|''[[Crithidia luciliae]]'']] :::* Genus ''[[Crithidia]]'' <small>Léger 1902</small> :::* Genus ''[[Leptomonas]]'' <small>Kent 1880</small> :::* Genus ''[[Lotmaria]]'' <small>Schwarz 2015</small> ::* '''Clade [[Leishmaniatae]]''' <small>Maslov & Lukeš 2012</small> :::* Genus ''[[Borovskyia]]'' <small>Kostygov & Yurchenko 2017</small> :::* Genus ''[[Endotrypanum]]'' <small>Mesnil & Brimont 1908</small> :::* Genus ''[[Leishmania]]'' <small>Ross 1903</small> :::* Genus ''[[Novymonas]]'' <small>Votýpka et al. 2015</small> :::* Genus ''[[Paraleishmania]]'' <small>Cupolillo et al. 2000</small> :::* Genus ''[[Zelonia]]'' <small>Shaw, Camargo et Teixeira 2016</small> :* '''Subfamily [[Phytomonadinae]]''' <small>Kostygov & Yurchenko 2015</small> ::* Genus ''[[Herpetomonas]]'' <small>Kent 1880 non Donovan 1909</small> ::* Genus ''[[Lafontella]]'' <small>Kostygov & Yurchenko 2015</small> [[File:Epifluorescence microscopy of Phytomonas serpens.png|thumb|right|''[[Phytomonas serpens]]'']] ::* Genus ''[[Phytomonas]]'' <small>Donovan 1909</small> :* '''Subfamily [[Strigomonadinae]]''' <small>Votypka et al. 2014</small> [[File:Angomonas deanei structure.TIF|thumb|right|''[[Angomonas deanei]]'']] ::* Genus ''[[Angomonas]]'' <small>Souza & Corte-Real 1991</small> ::* Genus ''[[Kentomonas]]'' <small>Votypka et al. 2014</small> ::* Genus ''[[Strigomonas]]'' <small>Lwoff & Lwoff 1931</small>
