What is "achromatorida"

Achromatorida is an order of non-pigmented intraerythrocytic parasitic protozoa belonging to the subclass Haemosporidiasina. The order was created by Jacques Euzéby in 1988.

The taxonomy of these organisms has been one of some controversy. Weylon in 1926 grouped many of these genera into the genus Babesia - given what is now known about these genera this was probably an error. Agreement on the organisation of these genera probably cannot be regarded as being settled.
