Figure 8. Spathidium polynucleatum from life (a, c, g) and after protargol impregnation (b, d–f). (a) Right side view of a representative individual; (b) developing cytoplasmic extrusomes, 4–8 µm long; (c) oral extrusomes, 8–10 µm long; (d, e) right and left side view of ciliary pattern and nuclear apparatus of a representative specimen; (f) dorsal view of ciliary pattern in anterior body portion; (g) cortical granulation. CG, cortical granules; CK, circumoral kinety; DB, dorsal brush; MA, macronuclear nodules/macronucleus; MI, micronuclei/micronucleus; OB, oral bulge; SC, somatic cilia; SK, somatic kinety/somatic kineties. Scale bars: a, d, e = 100 µm; f = 30 µm.
