Etymology

From translingual Protista, from Ancient Greek πρώτιστος (prṓtistos).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈproʊtɪst/

Noun

protist (plural protists)

  1. (microbiology) Any of the eukaryotic unicellular organisms—including protozoans, slime molds and some algae—historically grouped into the kingdom Protista (or Protoctista), now distributed over several clades.

    2. Any single-celled eukaryote or prokaryote [1959–1969].

Usage notes

  • As cladistics and phylogenetics became increasingly emphasised in modern taxonomy, Protista was revealed to be an artificial grouping of several independent clades, and its use as a formal taxon was gradually abandoned. For more information, see Protist on Wikipedia.Wikipedia
