Muller_Vibrio_strictus.jpg


Summary

Description
English: Vibrio strictus, a probable Peranema sp., as depicted by OF Muller in Animalcula Infusoria. The forked tip of the flagellum (which Muller viewed as a necklike extension of the body) is a microscope artifact, probably arising from the motion of Peranema's flagellum, which typically forms a flexible, flailing hook at tip.
