Bit by bit toward the diversity of metopids: Description of the genus Pidimetopus n. gen. (Ciliophora: Armophorea)

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

While metopids (Armophorea: Metopida) represent the most species-rich group of free-living anaerobic ciliates thriving in hypoxic environments, our understanding of their true diversity remains incomplete. Most metopid species are still characterized only morphologically. Particularly, the so-called IAC clade (named in the past after some of the taxa included, Idiometopus, Atopospira, and Clevelandellida), comprising free-living members as well as the endosymbiotic ones (order Clevelandellida), is in serious need of revision. In our study, we establish a new free-living genus in the IAC clade, Pidimetopus n. gen., with descriptions of two new species, P. nanus n. sp., and P. permonicus n. sp., using up-to-date molecular and morphologic methods. The genus is characterized by small cells (up to 75 μm long), not more than 10 adoral membranelles and eight somatic kineties, and usually, four long caudal cilia that can stiffen. In addition to morphologic and molecular characterizations, we also conducted a statistical morphotype analysis of the polymorphic species P. nanus n. sp. We discuss the relevance of the earlier morphologically described species Metopus minor as a putative collective taxon for several small metopids less than 50 μm long.
