Bodenwerder, Weser
In October 2012 I took a sample from the bank of the river Weser, close to the old railroad bridge, in the town of Bodenwerder, in Central Germany. The sample came from a large stone just beneath the water level. At home I made some Moist-Chamber-Mounts, which resulted in some beautiful and unexpected amoeboids:
- Paramphitrema lemanense
- Cyphoderia calceolus
- Cyphoderia laevis
- Cochliopodium granulatum
- Leptophrys sp.
- Polychaos dubium
- Rhizamoeba caerulea
- Thecamoeba striata
- Penardeugenia spec., probably new species
- Limnofila spp.
- Microgromia sp.
- Lecythium granulatus
- Lithocolla spec.
- Microcometes paludosa
- Acanthocystis aculeata
- Nuclearia flavocapsulata
- Chlamydaster laciniatus
- Centropyxis ecornis
- Difflugia varians
- Scutiglypha acanthophora
