描述:
Notosolenus (note-owe-so-lean-us) a heterotrophic euglenid flagellate. The cells are rigid, the surface is ridged, and the cell has one well developed flagellum projecting from the front and a second, usually short, flagellum trailing under the moving cells (the second flagellum is not visible in this micrograph). Phase contrast. Material from Nymph Creek and Nymph Lake, thermal sites within Yellowstone National Park, photograph by Kathy Sheehan and David Patterson.
