- - The study examines a new species of soil ciliate, Lamtostyla paravitiphila, found in eastern China, focusing on its structure and development through live observations and staining techniques.
- - Key morphological traits include multiple macronuclear nodules, no cortical granules, numerous adoral membranelles, cirri arrangements, and distinct dorsal kineties.
- - The morphogenesis involves the initial formation of specific cirral anlagen, with certain cirri contributing more to this process than others, while molecular analysis shows that related Lamtostyla species do not form a monophyletic group.
