Cryomonadida is a group of heterotrophic Rhizaria, that belong to the Cercozoa.
==Characteristics== Members of the Cryomonadida are single-celled organisms that are surrounded by a shell comprising layers of organic material. They possess two unequally long flagella, and a single nucleus with a distinct nucleolus. They have a laterally located cytostome, from which pseudopodia arise.
