Here are two views of Blepharisma. The top image is focused on the exterior surface, while the lower image is a liitle more focused on the "interior". Both show the characteristic light pink color of this species.

Hi Charles,

that's good food for ciliate fanatics (like me), many thanks!! I purchased the big volume on ciliates by Kahl recently. According to that I would vote for Bl. musculus. Especially because of the pearlchain-like Ma and the pointed tail.


Bye for now

Bernhard
