Hello,

I spent some time to identify this ciliate, but I think at Opisthostomum perhaps O.bengalense
Photo are not good, this ciliate is as a wineskin.
You cannot compressed it between slides without exploded it.
Stacking is difficult because it move slowly and turn on its axis.

Jean-marc,

Interesting creature. I think it might be Trachelius.
