New myxozoan genomes and phylogenomic tests place the sampled parasites within Cnidaria and associate extreme body reduction with genome reduction; this does not identify their exact ancestor or origin time.

New myxozoan genomes and phylogenomic tests place the sampled parasites within Cnidaria and associate extreme body reduction with genome reduction; this does not identify their exact ancestor or origin time. This navigation entry is not a phylogeny or a complete taxon dossier.

Claim ledger
Myxozoa has no supported scalar temporal range in the cited evidence: phylogenomics resolves a cnidarian placement and genome reduction but provides no fossil or calibrated origin boundary, so the former 0–0 placeholder is withheld.
claim:taxon:myxozoa:range-boundary-rc50Known limits
- A missing branch or fossil occurrence does not imply biological absence. Internal nodes are not calibrated divergence estimates.
- PBDB external identifier withheld: accepted-rank-mismatch.
