When the protozoa were catagorised into 4 groups according to movement they were -

Mastigophora (Flagellates) move by means of flagella.They are free living and eat by surrounging food particles with pseudopodia and engulfing them

Sarcodina- (Amoeboids) move by extending pseudopdia which allow them to glide across surfaces.They are free living and engulf food in pseudopodia

Sporozoa- non-motile (though may produce motile gamete stages) live as intracellular parasites

Ciliophora (Ciliates) move by beating many short filaments (cilia) which cover their surface . They are free living, most have a "cytostome" (digestive groove) down which food may be directed. At the bottom of the groove the food becames engulfed in a digestive vacuole.

N.B. the division of protozoa according to locomotion is no longer thought to represent the actual evolutionary relationships of the organisms
