The testaceous, or shell-bearing, amoebas possess either lobopodia or filopodia, and the often economically important foraminiferans bear reticulopodia. |
The mouth and gullet is admirably adapted for securing the testaceous mollusks and other substances on which they feed. |
They are sometimes naked, and sometimes enclosed in a shell, whence they are known as testaceous Molluscs. |
The specimen before me has the same part of a dull testaceous color, being not at all conspicuous and in feeble contrast with the black ground color. |
The nature also of the ground has an important influence on the testaceous fauna, both on the land and beneath the waters. |
