Schaller at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee under Sea Grant R1MW-32 and EPA grant R-810871-OL-O. Estep conducted work on the marine Ochromonas and Chrysamoeba spp., at the University of Rhode Island (URI). Thin sections of the marine species of Chrysamoeba and Chrysochromulina and the freshwater dinoprotist were examined by Johnson, at URI. Work at URI was supervised and directed by Sieburth, supported in part by NSF Biological Oceanography Program grants OCE-8121881 and OCE-8516614. ‡ This article is based on a presentation in the symposium “Protistan Autotrophic/Heterotrophic Interactions” cosponsored by the Society of Protozoologists, Phycological Society of America, and the American Society of Limnology and Oceanography at the University of Rhode Island on June 26, 1986. § Present address: Institute of Marine Research, Directorate of Fisheries, P.O.
