No euglena dose not cause any disease . Euglen,a spp. of which there are over a thousand, do not cause diseases.

Euglena is a unique organism that is considered both a unicellular algae and a protozoan. It has chloroplasts (like an algae) and flagella (like other protozoans).

Other protozoans, such as Giardia and Trypanosomaare pathogenic -- causing intestinal problems and African sleeping sickness, respectively.

Euglena is an algae-like organism which belongs to the protist kingdom and lives in freshwater. It is an autotroph and around 800-1000 species of euglena have been discovered. Euglena can cause illnesses (not diseases) under some specific conditions, but it itself is not a disease.
