Did You Know?

Historically, protozoa were classified under the kingdom Protista. Within this, Giardia and Trichomonas belong to the phylum Sarcomastigophora, subphylum Mastigophora (the flagellates). Modern molecular classification has revised these groupings, but this traditional taxonomy is still widely used in medical parasitology.
