SYNOPSIS
The ciliate Marituja pelagica Gajewskaja, 1928 was described originally from Lake Baikal. Recently this organism was found in the plankton of a eutrophic pond in the area of Bonn. Studies of structure of living ciliates and of silver-stained preparations aided in the solution of hitherto existing taxonomic problems with regard to M. pelagica and led to its placement in the suborder Peniculina.
