03EB0C77BE2AFF92AE68CA81EED5368B.taxon	description	2 A-F) Diagnosis of the Indian population (Data based on 5 specimens): Size about 30 × 15 μm in stained preparations; shape ovoid, flattened dorsoventrally, slightly narrowed at the posterior body end, body with deep grooves. Nucleus near body midline, about 10 - 13 μm from anterior body end with diameter about 5 - 7 μm, nucleolus visible in stained preparation with irregular shape and length about 4 - 6 μm. Crystals and granules were observed on the surface in live observations. Cytoplasm with food vacuoles and lipid droplets. A vacuole present in the anterior 2 / 3 of the cell. Feeding organelles conspicuous extending from anterior to nearly posterior body end, conical in shape with capability of protruding and withdrawing. Two flagella emerging out from a prominent small groove at the anterior body end, one flagellum slightly shorter than the other. Some specimens observed with very short flagella. Material deposited: A slide including protargolimpregnated specimens have been deposited at the National Zoological Collections of the Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata, India with the following accession numbers Pt. 4506 / 1 (specimens marked with black ink circles on the slide). Occurrence and ecology: The species Entosiphon sulcatum is rather common in freshwater ecosystems and has a cosmopolitan distribution. The present study reports its presence from water sample collected from a small pond near Helay Khola watch tower, Lower Ghoramara Block, Sevok Beat, North Range, Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary, West Bengal (26 ° 50 ' 671 " N 88 ° 26 ' 293 " E). It feed on bacteria and detritus.	en	Bharti, Daizy, Kumar, Santosh (2019): Two freshwater flagellates from the Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary, West Bengal.

03EB0C77BE2AFF92AD96CCFCEFD430E9.taxon	description	(Figure 1 A-E) Diagnosis of the Indian population (Data based on 7 specimens): Size about 20 × 10 μm in stained preparations; shape elliptical to narrowly elliptical, longitudinally extended, abdominal side convex, dorsal slightly curved. Nucleus slightly posterior of body midline, about 6 - 11 μm from anterior body end with diameter about 4 - 5 μm, nucleolus globular visible in stained preparation with diameter about 3 - 4 μm. Paramylon bodies of 2 - 5 μm length present throughout the cell. A row (sometime two rows) of ejectosomes present posterior to the base of flagellum. Two flagella emerging out from a prominent small groove at the anterior body end, one flagellum slightly shorter than the other. Material deposited: A slide including protargolimpregnated specimens have been deposited at the National Zoological Collections of the Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata, India with the following accession numbers Pt. 4506 (specimens marked with black ink circles on the slide). Occurrence and ecology: The species Rhabdomonas costata is rather common in both freshwater ecosystems. It has a rather cosmopolitan distribution with reports from Europe, Poland, Asia, and North America. The present study reports its presence from a small pond near Helay Khola watch tower, Lower Ghoramara Block, Sevok Beat, North Range, Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary, West Bengal (26 ° 50 ' 671 " N 88 ° 26 ' 293 " E). When the sample was collected the specimens were in high abundance and possibly responsible for the slightly greenish colour of the water due to its blooming.	en	Bharti, Daizy, Kumar, Santosh (2019): Two freshwater flagellates from the Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary, West Bengal.
