Fig. 1. Euplotes amieti Dragesco, 1970 in vivo (A), after protargol (B–D) and silver nitrate (E, F) impregnation. (A) Ventral view of a representative cell. Arrows indicate caudal cirri. (B) Different shapes of macronucleus. (C, D) Ventral (C) and dorsal (D) view, showing the infraciliature and nuclear apparatus. Arrow shows the sigmoidal adoral zone. (E, F) Silverline system on ventral (E) and dorsal side (F). Arrow shows the sigmoidal adoral zone. AZM, adoral zone of membranelles; CC, caudal cirri; CVP, contractile vacuole pore; FVC, frontoventral cirri; MC, marginal cirri; PM, paroral membrane; TC, transverse cirri. Scale bars: 100 μm.
