It was very abundant in hypersaline waters from South Spain (150g/l approximately); it is over 0.5mm long and of black colour. We wonder if it is a ciliate species...
Hard to say with such quality... can't you get anything with a better focusing?
In that size range it could even be a rotifer...
Its a ciliate. I am not sure about the species. Could be Blefarisma by the shape, but it moves different.
Muchas gracias Albert!
It is a characteristic for hypersaline waters ciliate Fabrea salina
Yes! thank you very much Igor!
We found them in saltmarshes from South Spain Thank you!
