In the water bodies of the Beskid Wyspowy Mts three species of the Paramecium aurelia complex have been found, i.e. P. biaurelia, P. tetraurelia and P. novaurelia. P. tetraurelia, which in Europe is a very rare species, was for the first time recorded in this region of the Carpathians.
EN
From among 15 species of Paramecium aurelia complex known in the world, five species were discovered in Poland. As a result of investigation carried out in part of the area of Zywiec Beskids in 1980, which are presented in this note,Paramecium novaurelia was only found.
EN
A new European habitat of Paramecium sexaurelia was found in Greece in the Lake Joannina, Joannina town, the Epirus region. It is also the first report concerning the investigations on the P. aurelia species complex in Greece.
EN
This preliminary report reveals a significant acidity of the lakes on the Babia Gora massif, and rather poor differentiation of the zooplanktonic organisms. So far none of the investigated species of the Paramecium aurelia complex have been found. However, some dominant zooplankton was registered in all six investigated lakes.
EN
The distribution of species of the paramecium aurelia in the Eastern Sudets of Poland and Czecho-Slovakia was investigated. In the studied territory four species of the P. aurelia were found: P. primaurelia, P. biaurelia, P. triaurelia, P. novaurelia. This is the second finding of P. triaurelia in the Sudets.
EN
The investigations were carried out in the village Letownia situated at an altitude of 470-625 m in the picturesque enclave on the border of the Makowski and Wyspowy Beskids. The new habitat of Paramecium biaurelia was found in the River Letowka.

In 1977 the Babia Gora National Park (the BPN) was included by UNESCO in the list of the international network of the Biosphere Reserves that comprise the world's protected ecosystems.The investigation, which is being carried out in the area of the BPN, aims at finding and recording species of the zooplankton as well as the Paramecium aurelia species complex occurring in the lakes of Mt Babia Gora. The investigation was carried out in Mokry Stawek, one of the largest lakes in the area. This is a preliminary report. It reveals a significant acidity of the lake and that so far none of the examined species of the Paramecium aurelia complex have been found. However, some predominant zooplanktonic organisms were registered.

The present investigations are a continuation of the previous studies on the zooplanktonic organisms in the waters of the Babia G?ra massif and its buffer zone (Komala 1996, 1997a,b, 1998a). In particular, the lakes situated on its southern slope were studied at present from the point of view of the occurrence of the Paramecium aurelia species complex and other zooplankton. So far none of the investigated species of the complex have been found, however, some dominant zooplankton was registered.

On the investigated territory three species of the complex were indentified, namely Paramecium biaurelia>, P. triaurelia, and P. novaurelia>. P. novaurelia dominated over the other species with regard to the number of clones established from nature as well as to habitats.

In a natural but newly reconstructed pond the presence of P. biaurelia was revealed. The previous studies conducted in 1992 did not reveal the occurrence of any species of the Paramecium aurelia complex here.
EN
The aim of this study was to register the zooplanktonic organisms in water bodies in the Botanical Garden of the Jagiellonian University in Krak?w, especially from the point of view of the occurrence of species of the Paramecium aurelia complex. In one pond, artificially constructed, the presence of P. tetraurelia was revealed.

The present investigation are a continuation of the previous studies on the zooplanktonic organisms in the waters of the enclave situated in the borderland of Sredni and Wyspowy Beskids (the Carpathians). In particular, the streams in the valley of the River Krzczonowka and the waters of the Krzczonowka itself were studied from the point of view of the occurrence of the Paramecium aurelia species complex and other zooplankton. Recently, the waters in the region have shown a significant acidity in comparison with pH values noted in the sixties. So far, none of the species of the aurelia complex have been found in the streams as well as in the river. However, some predominant zooplanktonic organisms were registered. Previously (Komala 1998d) P. biaurelia was found in the Bogdanowka stream which flows into Krzczonowka, the main river of the valley.

This report reveals a significant acidity of the River Raba at all the investigated sampling points, and rather poor differentiation of the zooplanktonic organisms. At one sampling point the presence of Paramecium biaurelia was registered.

The new habitat of Paramecium biaurelia was found on the Island Elba.

On the studied territory the presence of Paramecium primaurelia (in two habitats),P. triaurelia (in 4 habitats), and P. novaurelia (in 8 habitats) was recorded. In three habitats last two species appeared together. The results confirm the appearance of P. novaurelia in Europe in many investigated places, and extend the range of P. triaurelia in Europe to the east.

A fragment of histone H4 gene (160 bp long) was sequenced in the standard strains of P. primaurelia (DQ067620), P. biaurelia (DQ067621), P. tetraurelia (DQ067622), P. pentaurelia (DQ067623), P. septaurelia (DQ067624), P. octaurelia (DQ067625), P. decaurelia (DQ067626), P. undecaurelia (DQ067627), P. dodecaurelia (DQ067628), P. tredecaurelia (DQ067629), and P. quadecaurelia (DQ067630). The tree constructed according to the Kimura model presents two main species clusters, one comprising P. undecaurelia, P. octaurelia, P. septaurelia, and the second cluster with P. pentaurelia, P. tredecaurelia, P. quadecaurelia, P. tetraurelia, P. decaurelia, P. primaurelia, P. biaurelia. P. dodecaurelia was recovered as a separate branch. The tree constructed on the basis of the maximum likelihood method also presents two species clusters, one with P. undecaurelia, P. octaurelia, P. septaurelia, and the second with P. primaurelia, P. decaurelia, P. pentaurelia, P. tredecaurelia, P. quadecaurelia, P. tetraurelia. P. biaurelia forms a basal clade to the latter cluster, and P. dodecaurelia was recovered as a clearly distinct branch from the clusters.

As a result of the present study Paramecium biaurelia was found in the ponds of the Botanical Garden in Krakow. It was the only species from the aurelia complex present in the ponds. The finding confirms previous observations (KOMALA 1997, 1998 a,b) indicating that Paramecium biaurelia is a species which invades marginal habitats more easily than do the other species of the complex.

Fragments of LSU rDNA and COI mtDNA genes were sequenced in Paramecium tetraurelia strains originating from different continents, i.e. from Australia (Sydney), Europe (Spain, Poland), Asia (Israel, India, Japan) and North America (Indiana) in order to investigate intra-specific polymorphism in this species. Phylogenetic trees (based on analyses using the NJ, MP and BI methods) revealed that P. tetraurelia strains from Australia, Europe, North America and Asia (Israel, Japan) belong to one group divided into two main clusters, while a strain from India is separate and belongs to a different group. The Indian strain groups together with strains representing different species of the P. aurelia complex: P. septaurelia, P. octaurelia, and P. dodecaurelia. Polymorphism within P. tetraurelia was confirmed, however, it seems that the applied markers did not explain the ways of divergence of strains within species (Indian strain and others), and also did not show correlations between geographic origin of strains and their genetic diversity. Some species of the P. aurelia complex seem closely related.

The presence of Paramecium decaurelia (three strains) and Paramecium dodecaurelia (two strains) were recorded in Japan, for the first time in this country and outside the USA.
EN
The presence of Paramecium sexaurelia from the Paramecium aurelia complex was recorded for the first time in China (Beijing). RAPD fingerprints (band patterns) of P. sexaurelia strains, the new strain from China and others from Asia, as well as from Europe and Puerto Rico, showed polymorphism within the species as several groups of genotypes characterized by different band patterns.
