Abstract
Woodruffia metabolica (Protozoa, Ciliophora) has a compound fiber on the left side of its ciliary rows composed of parallel, overlapping ribbons of kinetosome-based microtubules. No similar structure is found connecting the kinetosomes on the right side of the ciliary rows. This arrangement is in opposition to the rule of desmodexy.Keywords
