Description; Spherical; ectoplasm vacuolated; endoplasm granulated with numerous small vacuoles; a large central nucleus; solitary but may be colonial when young; among plants in still fresh water. (ref. ID; 1618)
Body spherical with protoplasm highly vacuolated. Usually 1 contractile vacuole which rises and pushes out the surface as a rounded globule before bursting. Pseudopodia extending from all parts of the body, with axial filaments arising from the membrane of the single nucleus. Habitat pond water among aquatic plants; very common. (ref. ID; 1923)
Measurements; Diameter variable, average being 40-50 um. (ref. ID; 1618)
