Beautiful expansion microscopy pictures were obtained at @dudinlab.bsky.social lab. ExM not only helped us to clarify the Discocelia cell structure, but also facilitated subsequent TEM studies.
New paper is out! We have studied the cute tiny Discocelia plataet sp. n. to obtain the first molecular data of the order Discocelida and clarify its cell structure. All this for a better understanding of the evolution of Cercozoa.
In our ongoing saga of description of new protists, we are happy to introduce Multisulcus malaysiensis, a deep-branching heterolobosean that forms highly unusual multiflagellated cells with multiple ventral grooves. Great work by @kristina-prokina.bsky.social
