Maxwell Juti Owuor et al.
We studied three ciliate species from freshwater habitats: Tetmemena indica Bharti et al., 2019 from Kenya and Tetmemena pustulata (Müller, 1786) Eigner, 1999 and Pleurotricha setifera Engelmann, 1862 from Austria. Tetmemena indica had a r...
New insights into non-marine monothalamids (Rhizaria, Foraminifera): The rediscovery of Limnogromia saxicola (Penard, 1905) and description of four new species [0.03%]
