title: Spectral Approach to Assessment of Phytoplankton Photosynthesis Rate in the Black Sea Based on Satellite Information: Methodological Aspects of the Regional Model Development
abstract: The present article addresses an overview of different types of extreme habitats in which sessile ciliates were found. Ciliates were found in different extreme habitats (marine deep waters, hypersaline, caves, and subterranean waters). Authors registered 11 species of sessile ciliates in extreme environments: suctorians Corynophrya abyssalis in a hydrothermal vent field (4090 m depth), Thecacineta calix in the Andaman Sea (1301 m depth), Paracineta livadiana, C. lyngbyi and peritrichous ciliate
