About 10 species of hemimastigotes have been described over more than 100 years.
I can't come up with an interpretation of this sentence that makes sense. These are "newly discovered" (in 1988, according to Wikipedia), so wtf happened "over more than 100 years" ???

I suppose you could say 10 species were discovered in the last millennium.
