This is the first report of intraspecific variation in free‐living protozoans based on mitochondrial sequence data, and the results show that the high variation in mitochondrial DNA makes it a suitable marker for intrapecific and population genetic studies.

It is concluded that the Subclass Peniculia should be divided into two orders, the Order Urocentrida and Order Peniculida, with the latter order having two suborders, the Suborder Frontoniina and PenicULina.
