The Behavior of Amoebae
R. D. Allen,M. Haberey +1 more
TL;DR: The amoeba is said to be one of the simplest organisms to show behavior, which means that its spontaneous activity is modified and modulated by changes in the environment.

Induction of Phagocytosis and “Cannibalism” by the Giant Ameba, Chaos carolinensis
TL;DR: It is evident from studies of cellular recognition resulting in phagocytosis by Chaos carolinensis that cilia from certain protozoa serving as prey, e.g. Tetrahymena pyriformis, influencephagocytic action, suggesting blockage by the cilia of contact sites normally available to initiate phagocytetosis of Paramecium.

Axenic mass cultivation of the free-living soil amoeba, Acanthamoeba castellanii in a laboratory fermentor.
TL;DR: The production of ammonia had a growth inhibitory effect, however, the sudden termination of the exponential growth phase and cell death could not be explained by the toxic influence of ammonia only.

Thecamoeba vumurta n. sp. (Amoebozoa, Discosea, Thecamoebida) from freshwater pond sediment - a sibling species of T. striata (Penard, 1890) Schaeffer, 1926.
TL;DR: In this paper , a new freshwater species, Thecamoeba vumurta n. sp., was described, which has minor morphological differences in the light-microscopy and the cell ultrastructure with the widely distributed species T. striata.
