Fig. 94.—A, Bursaria truncatella, frontal field deeply insunk; B^Folliculina ampulla, with frontal field drawn out into two flexible arms. (.4, original; B, after Doflein.) Such frontal fields are flat in the various species of Stentor, or they may be greatly invaginated as in Bursaria truncatella, or drawn out into two ciliated food-getting arms as in Folliculina ampulla (Fig. 94), or into a tripartite frontal field in Triloba paradoxa, or rolled up folds as in Bursalinus synspiralis. The cytoproct is rarely differentiated as a definite opening in the cortex. In many cases, especially in the flagellate group, the cyto- pharynx and anus are the same. In the majority of ciliates, on the other hand, there is a constant opening or pore, usually in the pos-.
