Описание:

Cell oval, 7-14 μm length, 3-5 μm width, rigid, not flattened. Large cytostome is situated at the anterior end of the cell. The anterior flagellum, 8-10 μm in length, curves to dorsal cell surface, and bears fine mastigonemes on the proximal end. The posterior flagellum, 12-14 μm, has a short vane filled with amorphous material and directed backward, which lies along the ventral side of the cell close to the longitudinal ventral groove. The cells are characterized by fast twirling movement and frequently change direction. The organism is eukaryovorous and takes up prey using the cytostome, forming a large food vacuole at the posterior end. The posterior end of starving specimens is pointed and does not contain the food vacuole. Cysts have not been found.
