| Summary: | 8. Notohymena rubescens Blatterer & Foissner, 1988 (Fig. 8) Material examined. Soil sample from Wangsan-ri, Jung-gu, Incheon, South Korea (37°26ʹ47ʺN 126°23ʹ40ʺ E), in February 2018. Diagnosis. Cell size 90-105 × 35-45 μm in protargol preparations, shape ellipsoid; 27-30 adoral membranelles; cortical granules reddish color; paroral membrane with hooked distal end in the typical Notohymena -pattern; 2 macronuclear nodules with 2 or 3 micronuclei; 18 frontal-ventral-transverse cirri, 3 frontal, 1 buccal, 4 frontoventral, 3 postoral ventral, 2 pretransverse ventral, and 5 transverse cirri; 1 left (18-20 cirri) and 1 right (20-22 cirri) marginal cirral row; 5 dorsal kineties; 3 caudal cirri. Remarks. Notohymena rubescens mainly differs from other Notohymena species because of the reddish color of its cortical granules (N. antarctica, yellowish; N. limus and N. pampasica, colorless; N. quadrinucleata, yellowish to citrine; N. saprai, dark green) (Berger, 1999; Kuppers et al., 2007; Kamra and Kumar, 2010; ... : Published as part of Min, Kang-San Kim and Gi-Sik, 2018, Brief morphological description of stichotrichid ciliates (Ciliophora: Stichotrichia) from Korea, pp. 323-332 in Journal of Species Research 7 (4) on pages 328-329, DOI: 10.12651/JSR.2018.7.4.323, http://zenodo.org/record/13161222 ... |
