Diagnosis Cytoplasmic body enclosed in test or shell of one or more interconnected chambers; wall may be homogeneous or of similar or unlike layers or laminae, may be imperforate or finely to coarsely perforate, basically proteinaceous but may have agglutinated particles, or may deposit the mineral calcite, aragonite, or rarely silica on the organic base, calcareous wall may be porcelaneous, microgranular, or hyaline and optically or ultrastructurally radiate or granular; canal or stolon systems of varied complexity may be present; commonly test has one or more main apertures through, which pseudopodia protrude. Sexual and asexual generations alternate, or one generation may be suppressed; gametes biflagellate, triflagellate, or amoeboid. Free-living or rarely parasitic; benthic and attached or motile, or pelagic, in marine to brackish water, rare in fresh water. Cambrian to Holocene.
