Abstract

We are presenting previously unpublished morphological characteristics of a new finding of the flagellate Wobblia lunata from Küçükçekmeje lake (Turkey). Scanning electron microscopy images with visualization of flagellar grooves, flagella, and mastigonemes were obtained. The geographical distribution of environmental V4 18S rRNA sequences of the studied protist and their abundance in marine ecosystems were analyzed.
