Since ‘flimmer’ appears to be a convenient word for the structures, and does not carry any obvious implications in the English language, I shall hereafter employ the term ‘flimmer-flagellum’ in reference to any flagellum bearing hair-like projections along one, two, or all sides. Ibid. 250 Regarding the arrangement of the flimmer, Fischer assumed that they must beat in unison, since, on any given flagellum, all the flimmer project in the same direction. 1947[see *mastigoneme n.]. 1965Bell & Coombe tr.
