Description:
Clathrulina, desmothoracid flagellate, traditionally regarded as a kind of heliozoon. The trophic cell lives as an amoeba within a stalked lorica, and pseudopodia extend from the lorica. This reproduces to form a flagellated cell which leaves the lorica and establishes itself elsewhere. Phase contrast.
