중국 칭다오(북위 36도 08분, 동경 120도 43분)의 새우양식장에서 채집된 해산 하모섬모충류가 Oxytricha saltans(Cohn,1866)로 밝혀져 형태 및 생태에 관한 연구를 실시했다. 서식처에서 채집한 표본과 실험실에서 배양한 것을 각각 생체 관찰하고 protargol로 염색하여 섬모하부구조를 관찰했다. 크기가 작아 분류학적 연구가 미흡했던 본 종에 대해서 새로운 식별기재를 제시했고 상세히 재기재 했으면 근연종 Actinotricha saltans sensu Dragesco, 1963에 관해 논의했다.

Two stichotrichid ciliates, collected from marine waters in Jeju Island, were identified as Afroamphisiella multinucleata Foissner et al., 2002 and Pseudokahliella marina (Foissner et al., 1982) Berger et al., 1985. They are recorded for the first time in Korea. The descriptions are based on examinations of living as well as protargol-impregnated specimens. These species are characterized as follows. Afroamphisiella multinucleata has a body size in vivo of $70-95{\times}20-35{\mu}m$; elongate rectangular in shape; contractile vacuole located slightly above mid-body. The adoral zone is bipartited into 3 distal and 13-17 proximal membranelles and occupies 28-35% of the body length. The frontal row comprises 1-4 cirri and one buccal cirrus. The amphisiellid median cirral row is composed of 14-21 cirri, 10-19 left marginal cirri, and 21-30 right marginal cirri. Cortical granules are yellowish. 11-20 globular/ellipsoidal macronuclear nodules arrange proximally along the cell margins. Pseudokahliella marina has a body size in vivo of $110-195{\times}40-110{\mu}m$ and broadly elliptical in shape. The adoral zone of the membranelles occupies 50-60% of the body length, and is composed of 41-70 membranelles. A prominent frontal scutum is present. The contractile vacuole is located below the mid-body. There are 11-13 frontoventral rows, including marginal rows. Caudal cirri and transverse cirri are absent. Three invariable non-fragmented bipolar dorsal kineties are present. The left and right marginal rows are composed of 22-35 and 28-40 cirri, respectively. Colourless cortical granules are present. 8-11 spherical/ellipsoidal macronuclear nodules are connected with each other by thread-like tructures, forming an inverted C-shape.
