Notes
Specimens of entocommensal ciliates were collected from Echinometra lucunter, Tripneustes esculentus, Lytechinus variegatus, Diadema antillarum. Data were obtained from protargol silver impregnations. Infraciliary characteristics are described in 2 new species (Trimyema echinometrae, Philaster bergeri) and 3 new genus (Paraphilaster, with P. echini, Paracyclidium with P. rhabdotectum, Parametopus with P. circumlabens). The infraciliatures of Metanophrys elongata [= Anophrys elongata (Biggar et Wenrich)] and Biggaria echinometris are redescribed.
