Peritrichs attached to submerged macrophytes, filamentous chlorophytes and debries have been found in San Miguel del Monte pond (Buenos Aires province, Argentina) during the period March 1998- March 1999. Specimens were identified, illustrated and measured alive. Fourteen species of Subclass Peritrichia new for the country are described, illustrated and commented: Epistylis hentscheli, E. tubificis, E. vestita, Opercularia elongata, Cothurnia annulata, Cothurniopsis valvata, Pyxicola limbata, Thuricola innixa, Th. kellicotiana, Vaginicola attenuata, Vorticella picta, V. pulchella, V. rotunda and Zoothamnium ramosissimum |

During an ecological study of the epibiotic relationship between ciliate protists and Pomacea figulina (Spix, 1827) (Gastropoda, Ampullariidae), originating from an urban stream in southeast Brazil, a high infestation by the peritrich ciliate Carchesium polypinum (Linnaeus, 1758) Ehrenberg, 1830 (Ciliophora, Peritrichia) associated to the shell of one mollusc among 23 was observed. We provided a morphological and morphometric study of C. polypinum using observations of specimens in vivo, after protargol staining, and examined using scanning electron microscopy. The Brazilian-population of C. polypinum is characterized by: size of zooid in vivo 89 µm x 57 µm on average; colony regularly dichotomously branched with usually up to 40 zooids; macronucleus... |
