Description:
This highly contractile marine ciliat has ventral cirri in oblique and marginal rows and three rows of dorsal cilia, thus it is a hypotrich structural grade. The adorale zone of membranelles shows clearly the assemblage of cilia to membranelles.
There are very special dorsal cilia (visible as a lateral row), each of them emanate from a cortical papilla.
Collected from Bodden, the brackish waters lying between the isles of Hiddensee and Ruegen (German Baltic Sea).Included On The Following Pages:
