摘要

Abstract

The characteristics and infraciliature of a new euplotid ciliate

Euplotes qingdaoensis n. sp.

discovered from the coastal waters of Jiaozhou Bay

northern China

were studied using live observation and silver impregnation. The new marine species is characterized by a slightly flattened body (90–110 μm×70–80 μm

in vivo)

an adoral zone of 26–29 membranelles

10 strong frontoventral and five transverse cirri

two caudal cirri

a single left marginal cirrus

seven dorsal kineties

a middle kinety with about 15 pairs of basal bodies

a silverline system of the double-eurystomus type

and a C-shaped macronucleus.
