Protistology is a scientific discipline devoted to the study of protists, a highly diverse group of eukaryotic organisms. Its field of study overlaps with more traditional disciplines of phycology, mycology, and protozoology, just as protists, which, being a paraphyletic group embrace algae, some organisms regarded previously as primitive fungi, and protozoa ("animal" motile protists lacking chloroplasts).

Journals

Dedicated academic journals include:

  • European Journal of Protistology (formerly Protistologica);[1]
  • International Journal of Protistology (Acta Protozoologica);[2]
  • Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology (formerly Journal of Protozoology);[3]
  • Protist (formerly Archiv für Protistenkunde);[4]
  • Protistology.[5]

Notable protistologists (sorted by alphabetical order of surnames)

The field of protistology was idealized by Haeckel, but its widespread recognition is more recent. In fact, many of the researchers cited below considered themselves as protozoologists, phycologists, mycologists, microbiologists, microscopists, parasitologists, biologists, naturalists, zoologists, botanists, etc., but made significant contributions to the field.
