Bodonida is a proposed order of kinetoplastid flagellate excavates. It contains the genera Bodo and Rhynchomonas, relatives to the parasitic trypanosomes. This order also contains the colonial genus Cephalothamnium.

Taxonomy

Bodonida contains the following suborders and families:^[1]

Eubodonina Vickerman in Moreira et al., 2004 stat. n. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Bodonidae Bütschli, 1883 emend. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
Neobodonina Vickerman in Moreira et al., 2004 stat. n. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Neobodonidae Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Rhynchomonadidae Cavalier-Smith, 2016
Parabodonina Vickerman in Moreira et al., 2004 stat. n. Cavalier-Smith, 2016
- Cryptobiidae Vickerman, 1976
- Parabodonidae Cavalier-Smith 2016

The order is probably paraphyletic^[1] and some treatments raise the three suborders to orders.^[2]
