Came across several of these yesterday and today. I had not seen them before. Really beautiful creature. I looked through my books and a bit online but haven't figured it out yet.

I'll take a stab at it Charlie. Euglena acus, body long spindle, pointed at rear, flagellum one-quarter length of the body length. Paramylum bodies numerous, short rods.
I ran into these too some months back. I think I found them on PIS or Microscope. They are also referenced in Jahns, Phylum Mastigophora, pg. 80, fig. 115C
