Woodruffia metabolica: An Exception to the Rule of Desmodexy

Thomas K. Golder 1

1 Department of Zoology, University of California. Davis 95616

Woodruffia metabolica (Protozoa, Ciliophora) has a compound fiber on the left side of its ciliary rows composed of parallel, overlapping ribbons of kinetosome-based microtubules. No similar structure is found connecting the kinetosomes on the right side of the ciliary rows. This arrangement is in opposition to the rule of desmodexy.
