This atlas aims to provide a ‘one-stop’ reference source of basic data on tropical marine ciliates that should be used for researchers worldwide. As one of main components, ciliates play vital roles in the microbial food web. Studies of ciliate diversity are, however, constrained by a lack of modern monographs and guides for the identification of tropical marine ciliates. Therefore, an image-rich guide or atlas like this book will undoubtedly be of great benefit for those who are not trained in ciliate taxonomy but who encounter ciliates in disciplines such as ecology, environmental biology, aquaculture and other related fields. We have carried out in-depth studies on ciliates along the coastal area of South China Sea for more than ten years and got a lot of ‘first-hand’ data. This atlas will assemble diagrams and photomicrographs of 315 free-living species of ciliate that have been found in the coastal area of the South China Sea. To be reader-friendly, habitats, ecological features and key references as well systematics will be provided for every species.

A complete curriculum about Protists for ages 10-15. Includes an 80-page student text with chapters on Paramecia, ciliates, flagellates, green algae, filamentous algae, diatoms, dinoflagellates, ameboids of all kinds, and an epilogue about protozoans that can make us sick. The text is lively and interesting, and filled with humorous cartoon characters, so these would-be-boring topics will be fascinating and fun for the students. Each chapter ends with some word puzzles, with special emphasis on the Greek and Latin words that appeared in that chapter. The 80+ pages of the teacher's section has plenty of high-content games and crafts. Additionally, the curriculum has its own YouTube playlist, providing access to dozens of videos showing microscopic views of these creatures. (Thus, no microscope is needed.)

Coastal phytoplankton boasts an incredible diversity of life forms. It is not rare to find 40 or 50 different species in just a few drops of water. In this "Photo Guide for Northern European Seas" we describe the major phytoplankton groups, diatoms and dinoflagellates with additional information on ciliates and smaller flagellates. In total we provide taxonomic, ecological and biogeographic information on more than 130 taxa. As the majority of students and professional plankton analysts will mainly work with the light microscope, the species in the book are documented with light micrographs, giving the reader a realistic view of species as seen in a water sample. The book is, therefore, not only suited for students and environmental managers, but also for amateur microscopists and laypersons.
