Fig. 5. Photomicrographs of Thuricola kellicottiana in vivo (A–P) and after protargol staining (Q–T). (A–C) Narrow side view of individuals with two zooids (A, B) and single zooid (C). (D) Wide side view of a single zooid individual. (E–G) Narrow side views of different individuals, arrowheads mark contractile vacuoles. (H) Detail of pellicle, to show the transverse striations. (I) Narrow side view of lorica, arrowhead marks the valve spine. (J–L) Wide side view of lorica, arrows mark junctional membrane, arrowheads mark valve spine. (O) Narrow side view of anterior portion of lorica, arrows mark valves, arrowheads marks valve spine. (P) Posterior portion, arrows mark the bulge in the lorica, arrowhead marks junctional membrane around the inner stalk. (Q, R) Ciliature of two specimens, arrowhead marks trochal band. (S) Oral ciliature, arrow marks epistomial membrane 2. (T) Detail of infundibular polykinety 1–3, arrow marks epistomial membrane 2. G, germinal kinety; H, haplokinety; Ma, macronucleus; P1–3, infundibular polykineties 1–3. Scale bars = 100 μm.
