Paramecia are often abundant in stagnant basins and ponds.
Paramecium bursaria is a species of ciliate found in marine and brackish waters. [1] It has a mutualistic endosymbiotic relationship with green algae called Zoochlorella . About 700 Chlorella cells live inside the protist's cytoplasm and provide it with food, while the Paramecium provides the algae with movement and protection. [ 2 ]
Paramecium Müller, 1773; Physanter Jankowski, 1975; Parameciidae is a family of ciliates in the order Peniculida. Members of this family have differentiated anterior ...
Paramecium caudatum [1] is a species of unicellular protist in the phylum Ciliophora. [2] They can reach 0.33 mm in length and are covered with minute hair-like organelles called cilia. [3] The cilia are used in locomotion and feeding. [2] The species is very common, and widespread in marine, brackish and freshwater environments. [4] [5]
Paramecium sonneborni is a species of unicellular organisms belonging to the genus Paramecium of the phylum Ciliophora. [1] It was first isolated in Texas and named after Tracy M. Sonneborn. It is a member of the Paramecium aurelia species complex. They are covered in cilia and are distinguished by their difference in mating patterns and enzyme ...

Paramecium strains possessing the particles are known as "killer paramecia". They liberate a substance also known as paramecin [1] [2] into the culture medium that is lethal to Paramecium that do not contain kappa particles. Kappa particles are found in genotypes of Paramecium aurelia syngen 2 that carry the dominant gene K. [3] [4]
