The classification of the Myxozoa is based on myxospore morphology. The shape of the spore, number of shell valves and polar capsules and the position of the polar capsules within the spore are the most important features for the definition of myxozoan genera (Fiala et al. 2015, Fig. 4.3.2). Classification at the species level is based on other spore characteristics such as spore and polar capsule dimensions, spore surface structures, the number of polar filament coils, etc.
