Book review by
Tom Fenchel (The Journal of Protozoology, 39 (3), 1992): This atlas of ciliates
is the first of four planned volumes. Its primary aim is to facilitate
the identification of limnetic ciliates for field ecologists
and water pollution experts. Early in this century it was recognized
that the composition of freshwater biota reflects the load of
organic pollutants to streams, lakes and ponds and a classification
of polluted waters (the "Saprobiensystem") is based
on this. It is the conviction of the authors that ciliates are
very usful in this respect, only they are considered too difficult
to identify and the ciliate atlas is an attempt to remedy this.
.
.
Due to the detailed descriptions and the quality and quantity
of illustrations this volume sets a new standard for this sort
of work and there is really not anything to compare to it. This
(an the following volumes) will provide an invaluable tool for
anyone who wishes to identify freshwater ciliates and it should
stimulate and support the increasing interest among limnologists
for protozoan communities. The work will also be indispensable
for ciliate taxonomists due to its detailed descriptions and
the systematic considerations offered by the authors. I do hope
that the fact that the work is not produced by an international
science publisher and the fact that it is written in German will
not limit its distribution. Everyone interested in ciliate diversity
or in the ecology of freshwater protozoa should own a copy. Tom
