Review by Gordon H. Ball on "Organisms living on and in Protozoa", published in 1969, that was itself an update of a 1941 review by Harold Kirby under the same title.

What is the current state of knowledge of the symbioses described in that review?

The review was subdivided by the symbiont organism classification.

Bacteria and Spirochaetes

Epibionts

Host taxon Symbiont taxon Notes
Devescovininae Termite gut flagellates, mostly based on studies by Kirby
Macrotrichomonas virgosa
Foaina signata
Mixotricha paradoxa
Rostronympha magna
Polymastix lineatus
Streblomastix strix
Urinympha sp. ex Cryptocercus sp.
Oxymonas grandis
Hyperdevescovina calotermitidis
Lophomonas striata "Fusiformis lophomonadis"
Chrysostephanosphaera globulifera
Lepochromulina calyx
Spongomonas discus, S. minima
Phalansterium digitatum
Petalomonas sphagnicula, P. symbiotica
Metapolytomas bacteriferum
Volvox aureus Pseudomonas fluorescens Attempts to culture Volvox axenically failed
Entamoeba histolytica Attempts to culture Entamoeba axenically failed
Centrophorella (=Kentrophoros) Caulobacteria, Thiobacteriaceae

Endobionts

Host taxon Symbiont Notes
Trichonympha "Caryococcus" (Micrococcaceae) "Nuclear parasitism is apparently widespread in Trichonympha, although... the incidence in a given population was frequently low."
Trichonympha turkestanica (= Deltotrichonympha turkestanica) two morphotypes in cytoplasm
Devescovnindae Endobionts in numerous species, in addition to epibionts
Gigantomonas herculea nine kinds of "symbiotes" in cytoplasm and nucleus"
Crithidia oncopelti (=Strigomonas oncopelti) "bipolar bodies" found to be bacteria
intestinal mammalian and amphibian flagellates "rods in the cytoplasm"
Costia pyriformis rod-shaped bodies in cytoplasm ectoparasitic flagellate of trout
Pelomyxa palustris large rods "Cladothrix" around nucleus and glycogen granules; "Bacterium parapelomyxae" allegedly isolated
Amoeba proteus "so-called alpha-particles, smaller than mitochondria, in the cytoplasm"
Acanthamoeba castellani gram-negative, flagellated cells "could not be grown outside of living organisms, they infected and multiplied in numerous other soil amoebae..."
Opalinidae reported in 'endoplasm'
Paramecium caudatum Holospora sp. in macronucleus, infected macronucleus fills up to 80% of cell; another type also found
Paramecium bursaria zoochlorellae-free individuals parasitized by small endoplasmic spheres
Paramecium aurelia (killerless kappa mutants) gram-negative acid-fast bacterium
Euplotes sp. filamentous bacteria, penicillin-susceptible
Vorticella cf. similis bacterium in macronucleus
Trichophrya micropteri rod shaped bodies in cell
rumen ciliates bacteria and other microorganisms in cytoplasm and nuclei
