Dovgal Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology NAS of Ukraine, Kiev, Ukraine Summary The monograph is concerned with suctorian ciliates. Using the materials collected and generalizing all literary data available, the author has proposed original hypotheses of suctorians’ origin and the main regularities of the evolution of the taxa. A new scheme of phylogeny of Suctorea has also been elaborated. Based on this research a new system of the class Suctorea, including 4 subclasses, 15 orders, 2 suborders, 41 families and 124 genera, has been proposed. Key words: Suctorea, evolution, phylogeny, classification Introduction species are planktonic. Typically they are freshwater This monograph is concerned with suctorian forms but marine species (the genus Marinecta ciliates. This group is one of the most speciesrich (531 Jankowski, 1978) have also been recorded. It seems according to our data) groups among Ciliophora likely that all representatives of this ecological group Doflein, 1901.

Suctorians can be found in all types of forms. The adult stage (trophont) is usually the stalked water bodies on a wide diversity of hosts and substrates. zooid (Fig. 1).

The body shape of suctorian trophonts is widely diversified, which has been associated with sessile mode of life, substrate diversity, environment factors and lack of cilia (Batisse, 1994), with the substitution of the cytostome (a characteristic centre responsible for ciliate shape) by numerous tentacles (Dovgal, 1996). Interestingly, coloniality is presumably not characteristic of suctorian ciliates. Exoskeleton is present as different stalks and loricas. Besides lorica, completely covering the ciliate body, semilorica or basotheca, covering only the lower part of the body is often observed. The stylotheca (thecostyle) represents type of loricas. The organisms with stylotheca adhere to the substrate by means of their stalklike protuberance. The mucous lorica forming at the expense of the glycocalyx development is not uncommon in Suctorea as well. There is invariably one macronucleus in suctorians. The macronucleus varies in shape from spherical or oval (in small species) to ribbonlike or branched (in large species). The micronuclei are generally numerous in suctorian ciliates and unevenly distributed around the macronucleus or (rarely) within the depressions in the latter. There are contractile vacuoles in suctorians of all Fig. 1. Discophrya elongata (Claparede et Lachmann, ecological groups: freshwater, marine and parasitic.

Furthermore, the problem The reproduction by monotomy is retained in of nonadaptive nature of morphological characters is parapodophrians, parasitic sphaerophryans, ambiguous. This seems to be the reason why D. Matthes phalacrocleptid suctorians as well as in intestine did not necessarily use the principles proclaimed in inhabitants. Certain parasitic species (for example, regard to suctorians. In particular, the shape of Sphaerophrya parameciorum Maupas, 1881) reproduce macronucleus was not used in suctorian taxonomy by both monotomy and budding (Jankowski, 1963). (Matthes et al., 1988).

Published reports of protozoan species from Australian animals have been compiled into a host- parasite checklist, a parasite-host checklist and a cross-referenced bibliography. Protozoa listed include parasites, commensals and symbionts but free-living species have been excluded. Over 590 protozoan species are listed including amoebae, flagellates, ciliates and ‘sporozoa’ (the latter comprising apicomplexans, microsporans, myxozoans, haplosporidians and paramyxeans). Organisms are recorded in association with some 520 hosts including mammals, marsupials, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates.

  • Microtubules and Associated Microfilaments in the Tentacles of the Suctorian Heliophrya Erhardi Matthes M. Hauser and Helga
    J . Cell Sci. 20, 589-617 (1976) 589 Printed in Great Britain MICROTUBULES AND ASSOCIATED MICROFILAMENTS IN THE TENTACLES OF THE SUCTORIAN HELIOPHRYA ERHARDI MATTHES M. HAUSER AND HELGA VAN EYS Lehrstuhlfdr Zdlmorphologie der Ruhr-Universitat Bochum, D - 463 Bockum, Postfach 2148 (F.R. Germany) SUMMARY At the ultrastructural level length changes accompanying linear movements of resting (non- feeding) tentacles of the suctorian Heliophrya involve not only altered microtubule numbers, but also marked changes in the specific microtubule pattern of cross-sectioned tentacles. These changes in number and pattern indicate a sliding between axonemal microrubules. The visualiza- tion of microfilaments in the cytoplasm at the tentacle base and in the knob region could shed new light on the problem of whether microrubular sliding is an active or passive process. At the tentacle base, microfilaments are either arranged in a ring-shaped configuration around the axoneme, or they run parallel to the axonemal microtubules, whereas at the tentacle tip during the resting state, microfilaments are closely associated with the plasma membrane of the knob. They form a filamentous reticular layer, which is continuous at the anchorage site of axonemal microtubules with the dense epiplasmic layer of the tentacle shaft. Obviously, this filamentous layer is engaged in positioning the haptocysts at the plasma membrane and in holding the membrane itself under tension. The putative contractile nature of microfilaments and the epiplasmic layer is argued from ATP-sensitive glycerol models of tentacles and from the results of halothane treatment of native tentacles. Halothane treatment of resting tentacles also gave indications of the presence of differentially stable intermicrotubule-bridges.
