Notizen:
A thermophilic ciliate Cyclidium citrullus (Hymenostomatida) was collected from Tiberias hot springs at temperatures of 50–58 C. In the laboratory, the ciliates were grown in monoxenic cultures with Escherichia coli in a mineral medium of 3% (w/v) salts similar in composition to that of the hot springs. C. citrullus tolerates a wide range of temperatures, 18–47 C. The optimal temperature is ∼44 C. The ciliates could tolerate direct transfer to salt concentrations of 0.2–7.0% (hot springs composition). No cysts or other dormant forms have been observed. A description of the ciliate based on living and stained specimens is given. The taxonomy and ecology of Cyclidium from hot springs is discussed.
