Portrait of the colorless euglenoid flagellate, Menoidium bibacillatum (Pringsheim, 1942). Strongly flattened. One side curved with the other more straight. One emergent flagellum. Stigma absent. Paramylon bodies are dimorphic with smaller round and larger elongate ring forms. Swims rotating on long axis. Highly refractile. From standing freshwater near Boise, Idaho. DIC.
