Seasonal dynamics of ciliated protozoa and their potential food in an eutrophic estuary (Bay of Biscay) (2003, background): “Aloricate ciliates were determined to species level, when possible, following Foissner and Berger (1996). Tintinnids were identified following Marshall (1969).”
The "neutral" community structure of planktonic herbivores, tintinnid ciliates of the microzooplankton, across the SE Tropical Pacific Ocean (2007, methodology): “We have found that using a 20µm concentrator yields higher numbers of tintinnids than settling whole water samples, in agreement with Pierce and Turner (1994), and have used the method in previous studies (Cariou et al., 1999; Dolan and Gallegos, 2001).”
An introduction to the biogeography of aquatic microbes (2005, background): “The patterns among eukaryotic microbes, such as foraminifera (Rutherford et al. 1999) and tintintinnid ciliates (Dolan & Gallegos 2001), closely resemble those of multicellular organisms in that distinct peaks are often evident at about 25° N and 25° S latitude.”
Revisiting Remane’s concept: evidence for high plankton diversity and a protistan species maximum in the horohalinicum of the Baltic Sea (2011, background): “…(including ciliates and bacteria), Remane’s model is inapplicable, as planktonic organisms often do not show minimum species diversity in the intermediate zone between marine and freshwater (Laprise & Dodson 1994, Crump et al. 1999, Dolan & Gallegos 2001, Hewson & Fuhrman 2004, Telesh 2004).”
