| bozasella gracilis n. sp. (ciliophora, entodiniomorphida) from asian elephant and phylogenetic analysis of entodiniomorphids and vestibuliferids. | bozasella gracilis n. sp. in the order entodiniomorphida was found in fecal samples of an asian elephant kept in a zoo. the ciliate has general and infraciliary similarities to the families ophryoscolecidae and cycloposthiidae. phylogenetic trees were inferred from 18s rrna gene sequences of b. gracilis, 45 entodiniomorphids, 10 vestibuliferids, 5 macropodiniids, and an outgroup, using maximum likelihood, bayesian inference, and neighbor joining analyses. of them, there were 32 new sequences; 26 ... | 2014 | 24703615 |
