Had another great morning at the microscope with a number of interesting finds. Special was what might be another example of a couple of testate amoebas copulating. They weren’t moving although lobose pseudopodia were in evidence. The following image is a stack of three separate pictures.

Another specimen was from the Genus Vaginicola, a loricated peritrich ciliate. This video shows a pair feeding with their revolving cirri while periodically retreating to their vase shaped lorica.
