This video shows a protozoan ciliate in the process of dividing. This ciliate protozoan was found in amongst a floating algal mass floating on the surface of a fresh water pond in the Bitterroot Valley of western Montana. Note the cilia beating at the edge of the organism. I am not an expert in identifying protozoa, so if anyone can pin down the Genus and species, it would be nice to know. Comments on the video are welcome.
