Gruberia (grew-beer-ee-a) an elongate spirotrich ciliate. one of the heterotrichs, with cilia in kineties over the body. The mouth ciliature formed from a long adoral zone of membranelles extending from the front of the cell to near the middle. This image shows the beaded macronucleus which runs much of the length of the cell. Dark ground illumination.
