Description
Summary:A marine lobose amoeba possessing characteristic features of the genus Cochliopodium (Hertwig and Lesser, 1874) Kudryavtsev, 1999 was found in the upper layer of sand at the beach of Keret Island, Kandalaksha Bay, the White Sea. Light-microscopical identity of this isolate and Cochliopodium gulosum Schaeffer, 1926 has been shown. This species has never been isolated and studied since its initial description. Its validity and generic position are confirmed by the results of light-microscopical investigation. Problems of biogeography of amoebae are briefly discussed.
