The molecular data, namely – gene sequences, remain the primary differentiating character, especially within the genus Leptomyxa. We have isolated a new representative of this genus, Leptomyxa regia n. sp., from the top layer of sediment collected from an artificial pond in Izmailovo Park in Moscow (Russia). A remarkable characteristic of this species is that being monopodial, it moves without forming a pronounced hyaline cap. The latter is visible only at the beginning of locomotion or in non-directed movement. In addition, it differs from other species in the 18S rRNA gene sequence.
