With double nucleus : a variously formed large,,nti-ronuc?cus and a small micronucleus (erroneously callednucleolus). Reproduction by fission, conjugation frequent. Order 1. Holotricha. The whole surface is equally covered with fine cilia, oftenarranged in rows. Paramcecium (Fig. 20, p. 17), Trachelius. Order 2. Heterotricha. Possess, besides the clothing of cilia which spreadsequally over the whole surface, a distinctly developed zoneof bristle- or stylet-shaped cilia near the month. Spiro-stomum, Stcntor (Fig. 15), Freia, Order 3. Hypotricha. Dorsal and ventral surfaces sharply distinguished. Ven-tral surface ciliated. Chilodon, Euplotcs, Stylonychia (Fig. 14), Oxytriclia, Urostyla.
