SYNOPSIS The ciliate Marituja pelagica Gajewskaja, 1928 was described originally from Lake Baikal. Recently this organism was found in the plankton of a eutrophic pond in the area of Bonn. Studies of structure of living ciliates and of silver‐stained preparations aided in the solution of hitherto existing taxonomic problems with regard to M. pelagica and led to its placement in the suborder Peniculina.
