These aloricate epiphytic peritrichs occurred as individuals with short indistinct stalks (not contractile). Nearest I can find in Jahn or Patterson is Rhabdostyla, but Jahn says they are found on copepods. So, any ideas on identity?

Hi again
just found out that I fell into a language trap: " aloricate" means "without lorica", right? My dictionary is just not hip enough
So forget about the nonsense I wrote above
Although, having said that I sort of discern something like a lorica there, but may be it`s just an illusion
See you
Bernhard

I just discovered the peritrich group of the Aloricata in Kahl. So I take this as being a technical term and not an average english word, is it? Which would excuse myself
Actually I didn't know this group. What I read in the book by Kahl, is that these critters have given up sessile life. One exception being Scyphidia and I think Erik could have hit it there
Cheers Bernhard
