Oral infraciliature of the common hymenostome ciliate, Glaucoma scintillans (EHRENBERG,1830). Stained by the silver carbonate technique (Foissner,W. Europ. J. Protistol.27:313-330;1991).Brightfield.

Oral infraciliature of the common hymenostome ciliate, Glaucoma scintillans (EHRENBERG,1830). The three adoral membranelles (M1,M2 and M3) are indicated by the green, white and yellow arrowheads respectively. The "X-body", a rhomboidal group of kinetids just anterior to the end of M2, is indicated by the blue arrow.The undulating membrane on the right margin of the oral aperture is indicated by the pink arrowhead.Stained by the silver carbonate technique (Foissner,W. Europ. J. Protistol.27:313-330;1991).Brightfield.
