Its morphology was investigated using light and scanning electron microscopy. The main characteristics of the new species are: thick-set ovate test, length/width ratio 1.4; relatively small size, mean length × width: 69 × 48 μm; 3–4 rows of apertural plates, apertural plates of first row lozenge-shaped, oral margin with median tooth and (5)–6 lateral toothlets; body-plates scutiform, broad, with weakly crenulated oral and aboral margin.}, doi = {}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/acta-protozoologica/article/on-a-new-species-of-euglyphid-testate-amoeba-scutiglypha-cabrolae-from-the-licancabur-caldera-lake-central-andes} }
