Abstract

Seven strains of amoebae were isolated from soil samples taken in Tibet (at high altitude), Sardinia and the Netherlands. They seemed to belong to one morphospecies. However, sequences of the small subunit rDNA and internal transcribed spacers, including the 5.8S rDNA, revealed that six represent different species of the genus Allovahlkampfia while one belongs to an unknown genus of which the closest relative is the genus Fumarolamoeba. Some unnamed strains of which the sequences had been published before are also given species status within the genus Allovahlkampfia.
