Morphology of Dysteria nabia nov. spec. from life (A, B), after protargol (C–E), and silver nitrate impregnation (F). The hapantotype (A–E) and paratype (F) specimens were investigated. A, B – left side view of two individuals with differing body size and shape; C, D – left side view showing the infraciliature, arrowheads indicate the kinetosome-like granules at the base of the podite; E – left side view of late-stage divider, showing the anlagen for the left kineties (arrows), the contractile vacuole pores (arrowheads), and the anlagen for terminal fragments in the opisthe (double-headed arrow); F – left side view showing the silverline system, arrowhead indicates the equatorial transverse stripe. Co – circumoral kineties, CVP – contractile vacuole pore, EF – equatorial fragment, Lf – left frontal kineties, LK – left kineties, Ma – macronucleus, P – podite, Pr – preoral kineties, RK – right kineties, TF – terminal fragment.
