서울의 한강과 관악산 계류에서 채집하여 실험실에서 배양한 하모섬모충류가 한국 미기록 종인 Paruroleptus lepisma Wenzel, 1953과 Euplotes aediculatus Pierson, 1943으로 밝혀져 형태 및 통계처리에 관한 연구를 실시했다. 서식처에서 채집한 표본과 실험실에서 배양한 것을 각각 생체 과찰하고 Protargol로 염색하여 섬모하부구조를 관찰하고 통계처리를 하였으면 재기재하였따.
Some hypotrichous ciliates collected from the Han River and the Mountain Kwank were cultured at laboratory. They were identified as Paruroleptus lepisma Wenzel, 1953 and Euplotes aediculatus Pierson, 1943. These two species are reported for the first from Korea. Morphological and biometrical studies of them were carried out by observing both wild and cultured cells and the infraciliature of silver stained specimens. The two speices were redesribed and analyzed biometrically for their taxonomic characters.
