FIGURE 1. Brooklynella sinensis n in Description of a new marine cyrtophorid ciliate, Brooklynella sinensis n. sp. from the China Sea with a new definition of the genus Brooklynella (Protozoa, Ciliophora, Cyrtophorida)

FIGURE 1. Brooklynella sinensis n. sp. (A–H) and B. hostilis (I, from Lom & Nigrelli, 1970) from live cells (A), after protargol (B–G, I) and Chatton­Lwoff impregnation (H). (A) Ventral view of a typical individual. (B, C) Ventral (B) and dorsal views (C) of infraciliature, arrow indicates posterior ends of postoral kineties. (D, E, F) Ventral views of individuals in early (D), middle (E) and later (F) stages of morphogenesis; arrow in (D) marks the three postoral kineties in multiplication; arrow in (E) notes the basal bodies that will involve the formation of nematodesmal rods; in (F) arrow indicates the three dikinetidal rows which will form the new oral kineties and double­arrowheads mark cytostome in the opisthe. (G) Right side view of a specimen. (H) Silverline system on dorsal side. (I) Infraciliature. CVP = contractile vacuole pore; Cy = cyrtos; EF = equatorial fragment; Ma = macronucleus; P = podite; TF = terminal fragment. Scale bar = 20
