Representative species. Epipyxis utriculus Ehrenberg 1838. Lorica is truncate or slightly everted anteriorly, widest centrally and pointed posteriorly. Body occupies about one-half the cavity of the lorica, and is at- tached by a thread-Hke pedicel to one side of the lorica. An eye-spot usually present. Nucleus central; contractile vacuole anterior. Length of lorica about 40 ju. Attached to water-plants. Fig, 435. Epipyxis utriculus, X 650. (After Stein.) 161 (160) Lorica urn-shaped. . Representative species. Chrysopyxis Stein. Chry so pyxis urceolata Stokes 1886. Zooid occupying the center of the lorica, but in no way attached to it. Flagella two, long, diverging. Yellow chromatophores often present. Nu- cleus centrally located; contractile vacuole posterior. Length of lorica 12 /i. Attached to algae. Fig. 436. Chrysopyxis urceolata. X 1200. (After Stakes.).
