[taxonomy:genus=Peranema] Conjoined Peranema squirming as they pull apart from each other. Were they dividing or conjugating?

[taxonomy:genus=Anisonema] Anisonema is gliding euglenid with two prominent flagella, the longer one trails along behind the cell. Here, two cells have either just finished dividing, or are just leaving conjugation (leave a comment if you know which!). At first I wondered what was this cell with four flagella, before realizing that it was actually two cells in the process of separating. From a sample originally collected 3 days ago.

[taxonomy:genus=Trachelomonas] The "durian flagellate" Trachelomonas is an euglenid with a single thick flagellum emerging from a cell body that is surrounded by a spiny shell (lorica). The cell swims rapidly through the water. The swimming appears to be driven by a helical beating of the flagellum wound around the cell body.

Description: English: Leishmania major. L. major promastigotes multiply inside L. amazonensis PVs. Time-lapse recording of macrophages infected with L. amazonensis-WT for 48 hours and superinfected with metacyclic-enriched L. major-DsRed2 promastigotes. Image acquisition started 6 days after L. major-DsRed2 promastigote addition. Division of L. major-DsRed2 promastigote (red) inside L. amazonensis-WT PV (green) was documented. The figure shows phase contrast (Ph2), DsRed2 and Lysotracker merged signals. Time of image acquisition is shown (hh:min). Scale at 5 um. Date: 8 December 2010.

Description: English: Leishmania major. Fusion of L. amazonensis vacuoles with PVs that shelter L. major promastigotes. Multidimensional imaging of macrophages infected with L. amazonensis-WT for previous 48 hours and superinfected with L. major-DsRed2 metacyclic-enriched promastigotes. L. major-DsRed2 promastigote (red) is sheltered by tight PV, weakly stained with Lysotracker (green), which interacts with large, Lysotracker-positive, L. amazonensis-WT PV. Merged images of Lysotracker and DsRed2 signals show transfer of L. major-DsRed2 promastigote to L. amazonensis PV; time after promastigote addition is shown (h:mm). Images were constructed using ImarisTM blend filter. Bars = 10 um. Date: 8 December 2010. Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/arieviln/5243916718/. Author: Fernando Real.
