Drepanomonas (dree-pan-owe-moan-ass) is an odontostome ciliate. This is a small group of small flattened and sparsely ciliated ciliates which are most usually found in anoxic habitats. Kineties are associated with the surface ridges, contractile vacuole near the middle of the cell. Differential interference contrast with closed condenser iris.
