Description

Figure 2. Drawings of Trimyema foissneri from life (A–D) and aħer protargol staining (E–I). A, leħ lateral view of a representative individual, arrow shows acontractile vacuole, red arrowhead shows food vacuole, yellow arrowheads show somatic cilia. B, different body shape in different viewing angles. C, leħ lateral view, showing buccal cavity (arrow) and position of macronucleus. D, disposition of the ciliary girdles. E, oral ciliature, red dots showing kinetidal composition at the anterior part of OK1. F, lateral view of oral ciliature, showing the shorter oral kinety 3 (in red). G, macronucleus and micronucleus (arrowheads), the position of the laưer being variable (1, 2). H, I, ventral (H) and dorsal (I) views of the holotype to show somatic and oral kineties, arrows show argentophilic lines connecting longitudinal somatic ciliary rows, arrowheads show epaulet. Abbreviations: CC, caudal cilia; Ma, macronucleus; OK, oral kinety; SK, somatic kineties; VLF, ventrolateral fragment. Scale bars: 15 μm (A, C); 10 μm (H, I).
