Initially identified as Euplotes, but icelliate123 (Charles e. Gevara), is poiting me that probably it's a Oxytricha.

Looking on my books, it could be a
Oxytricha saprobia (100um)
or Oxytricha pellionella (65-85um)


Anyway, I still miss the cirrus on the back.

If anybody can confirm any identification or point any other one, please do it :-)
