Testate amoebae, a Common card
Testate amoebae are a polyphyletic group of unicellular amoeboid protists, which differ from naked amoebae in the presence of a test that partially encloses the cell, with an aperture from which the pseudopodia emerge, that provides the amoeba with shelter from predators and environmental conditions.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The test of some species is produced entirely by the amoeba and may be organic, siliceous or calcareous depending on the species, whereas in other cases the test is made up of particles of sediment collected by the amoeba which are then agglutinated together by secretions from within the cell.
- A few taxa can build either type, depending on the circumstances and availability of foreign material.
- The assemblage referred to as "testate amoebae" is actually composed of several, unrelated groups of organisms.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Testate amoebae article was read about 5,800 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 62 and blocks with 50: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
