The contractile vacuole may evacuate through a CV pore located in an indentation of the pellicle not far from the adoral end. TEM taken on 3/18/71 by R. Allen with Hitachi HU11A operating at 75kV. Neg...

In Euplotes a replication band of the macronucleus has larger heterochromatin masses on one side of the band after DNA replication has occurred. The replication band moves in the direction of lighter...

Cortex and food vacuole of Didinium. The food vacuole contains unexploded trichocysts of Paramecium. Further details available at Wessenberg, H. and Antipa, G. 1968. Studies on Didinium nasutum. I. St...

The infraciliary lattice in this quick-freeze deep-etched image consists of a meshwork of branching fibers composed of many subfibers. Basal bodies and trichocyst tips extend through the openings of t...

A grazing section through the dorsal surface of Euplotes showing cross sections of cilia in four of the sparsely ciliated kineties . A layer of mitochondria underlies the pellicle. A replication band ...
