Açıklama:

Histriculus (his-trick-you-lus) is a hypotrich ciliate with cirri forming a row all around the margin and including across the back of the cell. Cell not flexible, by which it can be distinguished from the very similar Oxytricha, also not with three long caudal cirri, by which it is distinguished from Stylonychia. With adoral zone of membranelles. Phase contrast.
