Notes

Fifteen species of the infusorian genus Epistylis were reviewed and classified saprobiologically (Legends to the Table 1). There were given the saprobic valence, the indicative weight of species (Ii) and the individual saprobic index (Si). Diagnoses of 3 species described by Banina (1983, 1984) were translated into English from Russian and a serious error dealing with incorrect identification of Epistylis rotans instead E. urceolata in the activated sludge was clarifed.
