Selective feeding behaviour of key free-living protists: avenues for continued study (2008, background): “In the case of larger-sized phagotrophic protists, such as foraminifera, studies examining fatty acid biomarker (Suhr et al. 2003) and cell carbon isotopic composition (Nomaki et al. 2006) of individual cells have demonstrated that certain taxa feed selectively.”

Different ingestion patterns of 13C-labeled bacteria and algae by deep-sea benthic foraminifera (2006, background): “Suhr et al. (2003) reported selective feeding on phytodetritus by benthic foraminifera based on lipid composition.”
