Surface of Nassula aurea. Early endosomes and clathrin coated vesicles. One clathrin coated pit at the bottom of a parasomal sac is shown. TEM taken on 2/22/71 by M. Aihara with Hitachi HU11A operatin...

A high resolution micrograph showing four parasomal sacs in longitudinal section each at the base of a surface depression. Trichocysts extend into each lateral ridge (lateral ridges do not have kineto...

This micrograph shows the striated kinetodesmal fiber extending to the pellicle from the basal body where it terminates against the epiplasm. A bundle of microtubules extends into the cell’s cytosol...

Four parasomal sacs showing them in longitudinal section each at the base of a surface depression. Trichocysts extend into each lateral ridge (lateral ridges do not have kinetodesmal fibers). Bulbous ...

Nice view of the oral apparatus, macronuclear organization, cortex, and cytoplasm of Opercularia. Neg of unknown magnification. Estimate sizes from the approximate 0.2µm diameter of a ciliary axoneme...

Planar view of the cortex demonstrating that the striated bands do indeed link the internal slopes of one cortical unit with all surrounding units. Parasomal sacs lie to the side of a single basal bod...

Striated band spanning the base of a longitudinal ridge (kinetodesmal fibers are seen in the ridge in cross section). The epiplasm appears absent from the top of the ridge or is replaced by two thicke...

The tubular cristae of mitochondria bear a pair of protrusions when seen in cross section. These are the F1 subunits of F1F0 ATP synthase enzymes which play a role in producing ATP, the cell’s main ...

A view of cortical fibers except the observer is looking at a cross-sectioned cell as though from anterior toward the posterior end of the cell; in this view the kd sections are seen on the left side ...

Longitudinal section of a striated band lying superficially to an arm of the infraciliary lattice but not contacting it. A post is seen at the junction of a branch in the infraciliary lattice. TEM tak...
