Integrative Studies on a New Ciliate Campanella sinica n. sp. (Protista, Ciliophora, Peritrichia) Based on the Morphological and Molecular Data, With Notes on the Phylogeny and Systematics of the Family Epistylididae [PDF]
During an investigation on freshwater peritrichs, a new colonial sessilid ciliate, Campanella sinica n. sp., was isolated from aquatic plants in an artificial freshwater pond in Qingdao, China. Specimen observations of this species were performed both in

Epibiont Peritrichids (Ciliophora: Peritrichida: Epistylididae) on the Crayfish Cambarellus Patzcuarensis in Lake Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, Mexico [PDF]
In this study, eight species of Epistylis were observed attached to the cuticular surface of 13 body parts of crayfish Cambarellus patzcuarensis. The species found were E. bimarginata, E. branchiophila, E. carinogammari, E. gammari, E. lacustris, E. niagarae, E. stammeri, and E. variabilis.

Sessilida (Ciliophora, Peritrichia), one of the most diverse and widely distributed orders within the ciliated microeukaryotes, is composed of about 600 species divided into 14 families and over 100 genera. Members of this order exhibit different ways of life and can be found all over the world, in different environments.

The peritrich Epistylis unioi Gong, 1986 was collected from fry of Pelteobagrus fulvidraco during parasite surveys at Hon-ghu Lake Fish Hatchery, Hubei Province, central China in May 2010 and redescribed. Some revisions were done basedon live, silver-impregnated, and SEM specimens. The zooid is elongated and somewhat vase-like in shape, measuring56–88 ×

A new colonial sessilid peritrich genus, Pseudepistylis, is established. Pseudepistylis n. gen. belongs to the family Epistylididae, (i.e. colonial with a non-contractile stalk and peristomial disc not borne on a stalk) but has oral ciliature that makes less than two turns on the peristome before entering the infundibulum and a reticulate silverline ...
