Bodo lacertse is frequently found in the intestinal contents of mostof the higher animals, hence it is easily obtained for class study. Aspecies of the Bodo has been observed in human urine (Bodo urin-carius), but it is probably a harmless invader. It is lancet- or wedge-shaped, the posterior part of the body beingturned a half to a whole spiral on itself. It possesses two character-istic flagella, equal in thickness but unequal in length. In motion the Fig. 182. Bodo lacertoe (Grassi). a living; h and c stained; h type without, c type with chromidium, . (1000 : 1). (After v. Prowazek, from Kisskalt and Hartmann.) longer one is directed forward, while the shorter is carried backward,functioning as a rudder, or a towing flagellum. Both flagella springfrom basal granules which are well demonstrated by the iron hsema-toxylin stain. They are situated in the extreme anterior part of thebody and are attached to the nucleus by a delicate fibril (Fig. 1S2,h, c).
