Nice catch Francisco. I bet this guy was found more in brackish water than fresh?

Hello.

Congratulation for the video Fran. I have never seen this ciliate.

The ciliate, is it Spanish?

Francisco,

Another good video. I really like the darkfield section near the beginning!

With my microscope - Nikon Fluophot - is difficult dark field goals of more than 10X.
