dc:description"Figure 1. Morphology of Pseudoamphisiella elongata sp. nov. from living observation (A–E) and after protargol impregnation (F–G). A, ventral view of a typical individual; B, ventral view of a slimmer individual; C, ventral view, note the ingested pennate diatoms; D, E, portion of cortex (top and side view), showing the polygonal-shaped alveoli and the rod-shaped extrusomes (arrows); F, ventral view of infraciliature, arrowheads indicate two fine pretransverse cirri; G, dorsal view of the same specimen as shown in (F), showing the macronuclear nodules, micronuclei, and dorsal kineties. Abbreviations: CC, caudal cirri; DK, dorsal kineties; EM, endoral membrane; FC, frontal cirri; LMR, left marginal row; Ma, macronucleus; Mi, micronucleus; MVR, midventral row; PM, paroral membrane; RMR, right marginal row; TC, transverse cirri. Scale bars: 50 Mm in A, B, C, F, G; 10 Mm in E.";
dc:description"Figure 2. Photomicrographs of Pseudoamphisiella elongata sp. nov. from life (A–H) and after protargol impregnation (I–N). A–D, ventral views of different individuals, arrows mark the pellicular alveolus; E, lateral view, the inset shows part of the cortex, and the arrowheads indicate the rod-shaped extrusomes; F, portion of cortex (dorsolateral view), arrows indicate the extrusomes; G, outline shape of a stationary individual; H, dorsal view of cortex, showing the polygonalshaped alveoli; I, dorsal view, arrows mark the dorsal kineties; J, caudal portion, the arrow indicates the caudal cirri; K, middle portion of cell, ventral view, the arrow marks the end of the right midventral row; L, posterior end of body, ventral view, the arrows indicate the two fine pretransverse cirri that can be easily overlooked; M, anterior part of body, ventral view, arrows indicate the frontal cirri; N, ventral infraciliature. Scale bars: 100 Mm in A, B; 50 Mm in C, D, G, H.";
