Blepharisma americanum has multiple macronuclei
Blepharisma americanum has multiple macronuclei and a peristome almost half the length of its body. It is quite pink, and has a conspicuous undulating membrane (that small sail-like structure near the bottom of the mouth). This one has swallowed a photosynthetic euglenid, which doesn't seem to realize it is about to be digested.
