Pseudouroleptus jejuensis differs from other congeneric species mainly by number of dorsal kineties (5 vs. 4). Based on our observation of late dividers, we confirm that the dorsal kinety anlage 3 forms 3 kineties (i.e., dorsal kineties 3–5), and the dorsal kinety anlagen 1–3 form 3–5/1–2/0 caudal cirri, respectively. Our gene trees support the assignment of this new species in Pseudouroleptus to full supporting values.}, doi = {10.4467/16890027AP.14.016.1597}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/acta-protozoologica/article/morphology-and-molecular-phylogeny-of-pseudouroleptus-jejuensis-nov-spec-a-new-soil-ciliate-ciliophora-spirotrichea-from-south-korea} }
