We are presenting previously unpublished morphological characteristics of a new finding of the flagellate Wobblia lunata from Küçükçekmeje lake (Turkey).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.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
