About this
book
Our ciliate atlas comprises 4 volumes
with about 500 pages each and describes in detail the morphology
and ecology of about 320 species listed by Sladecek et al. (1981)
as indicators of water quality. Many ciliates are valuable indicators
of organic pollution because they are confined to 1 or 2 saprobic
zones. Furthermore, their morphology is well know enabling a
reliable identification from life. Each species is described
monographically, including a list of important synonyms, a discussion
of nomenclature and taxonomy, a differential diagnosis, and a
comparison with similar taxa. The ecology section treats the
occurrence and geographical distribution, the autecology, and
the saprobiological classification. This section is followed
by line drawings, light micrographs of living and silver prepared
specimens, and scanning electron micrographs. Vol. I treats the
Cyrtophorida, the Oligotrichida, the Hypotrichia, and the Colpodea;
Vol. II the Pertrichia, the Heterotrichida, and the Odontostomatida;
Vol. III the Hymenostomatida, the Prostomatida, and the Nassulida;
and Vol. IV (in press) the Karyorelictida, the Haptorida, the
Pleurostomatida, and the Suctorida. A speciality of Volume III
is the detailed compilation of toxicological and ecological data
from the widely distributed genera Paramecium and Tetrahymena.
This should provide the user with background data to assess the
effects of many hazardous substances common in aquatic ecosystems.
Supported by the Österreichischen FWF (Projekt P8924-Bio)
and the Bayerisches LAWA.
