title: The feeding biology of tintinnid protozoa and some other inshore microzooplankton
abstract: Tintinnids are among the largest and most abundant of the marine cillate microzooplankton but there is very little published information on their feeding rates and abilities. The feeding of Tintinnopsis subacuta (and to a lesser extent, that of 12 other species) was investigated with three methods 1) direct observation 2) counts of accumulated food cells and 3) Coulter Counts of the particles in the experimental medium. There was reasonable qualitative agreement between the results obtained by t
