Ecology of free-living freshwater heterotrophic euglenoids: A summarizing review
Original language description
This review aims to compile sparse information on the ecology of freshwater heterotrophic euglenoids and synthesize the main phenomena and hypotheses from published results. Apparently, heterotrophic euglenoids play a very important role in the nutrient flow of water ecosystems and are irreplaceable heterotrophic contributors in benthic communities, as their total biomass is by far the largest among heterotrophic flagellates. Even though they are obviously a very crucial part of the diversity of freshwater heterotrophic protists, and likely the most represented (in terms of biovolume) group of heterotrophic flagellates, there have been only a few attempts to elucidate their ecological preferences, roles, niches, and importance. They exhibit three nutrition modes-bacterivory, eukaryovory, and osmotrophy-which are strategies closely related to their taxonomical groupings and phylogenetic positions. Unfortunately, the phylogeny of the majority of the species remains unknown, similar to their autecology. There are major problems with the quantitative research methodologies, which is a big challenge for future research to improve.
