Z. Komala et E. Przybos, Paramecium biaurelia and other accompanying zooplankton in the ponds of the Botanical Garden in Krakow, FOL BIOLOG, 47(1-2), 1999, pp. 51-52
As a result of the present study Paramecium biaurelia was found in the pond
s of the Botanical Garden in Krakow. It was the only species from the aurel
ia complex present in the ponds, The finding confirms previous observations
(KOMALA 1997, 1998 a,b) indicating that Paramecium biaurelia is a species
which invades marginal habitats more easily than do the other species of th
e complex.
