Figure 2. (A–D) Dysteria parovalis nov. spec. and (E–G) Orthodonella shenae from life (A, B) and after protargol impregnation (C–G). (A) Lateral view of a typical specimen; (B) ventral view, to show the flattened body shape; (C) somatic infraciliature, arrowheads mark the shortened ventral kineties; arrow indicates the fragment-like left kineties, while double-arrowheads mark the argentophilic structure; (D) left view, to show the general appearance of ciliature and nuclear apparatus; arrow marks the oral structure; double-arrowheads indicate the posterior end of cytopharyngeal fibres; arrowhead points to the terminal fragment; (E) ventral view, to show a cell full of large diatoms, arrow marks the synhymenium; (F) dorsal view, to show the pores of contractile vacuoles (arrows); (G) to demonstrate different sizes of cells after fixation.
