A Chilodonella ciliate
Species name:Chilodonella
AL-Museum AL-Museum
The front of this ciliate, Chilodonella, is slightly bent and flexibly changes shape when it touches an obstacle. The shape of its body resembles a kidney bean, but we cannot recognize its characteristics in detail because the organism keeps disappearing behind particles.
