Paramecium bursaria is a ciliate that contains mutualistic algae called Zoochlorella. The algae lives in the cytoplasma of the Paramecium and provides it with food. Paramecium bursaria grows in Dilute Alfalfa Medium (Hay Medium) or Soil Water Medium. Requires light for growth.

Paramecium aurelia is the smallest species of Paramecium we offer. Paramecium aurelia is characterized by cilia, which it uses for locomotion and feeing. Contains a macronucleus and two micronuclei. Grows in Dilute Alfalfa Medium (Hay Medium).

Paramecium multimicronucleatumis one of the largest species of Paramecium. This ciliate contains a single macronucleus and four or more micronuclei. Grows in Dilute Alfalfa medium (Hay Medium).

Two or more species of annelids are included

Contains Collections of Specimens Used Most Often in Biology Classes

The culture supplied includes copepods in various stages of development.

Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They can be carnivorous as well as photosyntheic due to their symbiotic relationship with green algae Zoochlorellae.

One jar containing a mixture of 6 different genera of algae. Each algae is cultured individually in Ward's laboratories, and mixed together immediately prior to shipment to ensure an adequate supply of each organism.

Specially Prepared “Real-Life” Combinations
The world is teeming with a wide variety of microlife, making studying samples of pond water complicated especially for the beginning student. To lessen the confusion, WARD’S has prepared different culture mixes that reflect protist combinations that occur in the real world, yet eliminates the hundreds of other life-forms found in a collected sample. Comes with a dichotomous key and either the Working with Algae or the Working with Protozoa manual. Supplied in a single jar.

Contents: Amphidinium, Coccolithophora, Dunaliella, Ectocarpus, and Prorocentrum.

Commonly known as the Vinegar Eel, these free-living nematodes require very little care, feeding in vinegar and feeding on fungi contained in it.

Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They are a carnivorous species that can be found in healthy freshwater rivers and streams where they attach themselves to plants and rocks.

Watch New Planaria Generate from Sectioned Parts

Very large ciliate. Feeds on colpidium. Hay medium.
Characterized by cilia; nearly all possess two types of nuclei.

This is the most widely studied Turbellarian, a free-living flatworm commonly used in science fair projects.
